  13. <> On or about 21-Mar-96 05:36:32 Bill Near typed the following words about "Re:
  14. <>  BN> How do you read news OFFLINE with TIN?
  15. <> 
  16. <> You use NNTPxfer to transfer the news from your ISP to your local machine.
  17. <> Then you can use TIN and NNTPSpool to read and reply offline. I did that for a
  18. <> long time. I use Thor now. Much easier to set up plus it does mail and QWK
  19. <> among other things all in one package.
  20.  
  21. From what I have seen of Thor, you're not actually online
  22. while reading/replying to Email or newsgroups.
