From: Charlie Russel - MVP on 5 Jun 2010 10:05 For any of you struggling with the Web interface, and discouraged by the quality of the MS provided NNTP Bridge, there is a new option, the Community Bridge. This is in active development, with builds often more than once a day being made available, and the results are quite impressive. Not only is it faster than the MS bridge, but it has much better conversion to Plain Text, handles code samples better, and allows for easier managing of messages and thread that you've participated in. The "Ctrl-H" feature of OE/WinMail works just as you'd expect. Please take a look at: http://communitybridge.codeplex.com for details and the current download. Once you get the Community Bridge up and running, you'll find Small Business Server discussions in the Technet.en-us.smallbusinessserver Forum. And THANK YOU to Jochen and the others who have contributed. This is a fine example of what can be accomplished with good programmers and a healthy community. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/russel

The only way this could be beaten would be if it were implemented as a "proper" NNTP server (so that we don't all have to run the darn thing). -- Steve Foster For SSL Certificates, Domains, etc, visit.: https://netshop.virtual-isp.net
