TODO: - provide more documentation in source code - exception catching in many instances - implement writing of Preferences - correct all documented features listed under "BUGS" - update installer to CDK 4.02a WANTED FEATURES: - timezone handling - SMTP authorisation - automatic old article purging (do we want this? make it an option) - reading only headers, and reading bodies of selected headers at next sync (similar to original Yanoff ways of doing things). Partly implemented - move posted articles to a "Sent" folder (optional) - use poll prefs also on a per-newsgroup basis BUGS: - still some problems in getting the rcvDate field of ArticleRecord from the Palm? - in threading, it seems like the sort threads by date-step doesn't always work. May be caused by problems in parsing the Date: field - many, many more...

Jennifer ------------------------------------------------- (about 1.0pre3) >That is good news. Did anyone use it with Windows 2000, as there >were problems with the previous versions? I used it. I tryed to install for 3 times: the first 2 times it didn't work, next I did it (I tried to force the installation manually). Fra2k ------------------------------------------------- I have a suggestion: is it possible to add an option that understand if the system is online and that tries to pool new messages only when the connection is up?
