    Hi,

    Apart from Agent does anyone here know of other newsreaders that will
    allow non standard NNTP port numbers please ? In other words,
    something like 1119 rather than 119. TIA.


    Regards, John.

    Microplanet Gravity fits the bill.

    Gravity is a superb newsreader, highly configurable, under active
    development, has many extremely useful features, a helpful user
    community and it's FREE
