Well having just upgraded to Windows 7, I am using Windows Live Mail as my email client and was going to use that for my newsgroup access, but I now understand that it is pretty much useless for that in the way that it formats replies to newsgroup posts.

So am now looking for a decent free newsreader. I've found MPGravity. Any comments on this one or any other recommendations?

Thanks.
