NewsBin Pro 3.31

Release History

NewsBin Pro 3.31 Build 2470 June 5, 2001 (Download Here)

 

  • Version 3.31B9 was running so well, we re-built it as 3.31 and released it!

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B9 Build 2469 May 18, 2001

 

  • Fixed bug introduced in B8 - reordering servers did not take effect unless NewsBin was restarted.

  • Implemented logic to avoid downloading bad parts to multi-part posts.  If one part is more than 5% different in size than the other parts, NewsBin now ignores it.

  • Implemented logic to handle servers that allow non-standard encoding of binary posts.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B8 Build 2450 April 18, 2001

 

  • Fixed problem with server list resorting itself alphabetically when NewsBin is started.

  • Fixed possible corruption of spool files.

 

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B7 Build 2446 April 17, 2001

 

  • Fixed (hopefully) the possibility of NewsBin work files (namely SPOOL and RECORDS directories) being created in unexpected places.  Now forced to the directory where the NewsBin executable lives.

  • Fixed possibility of losing (actually mis-placing) file filter and subject filter settings.

 

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B6 Build 2433 March 25, 2001

 

  • Re-wrote the POST function!  Allows posting of text (for requests, etc) and posting files, multi-part or not.

  • Fixed the MOTD link.  B5 was accidentally showing the unregistered MOTD to everyone.

 

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B5

 

  • Fixed the POST function (kind of).  Multi-part is still broken.

  • Fixed the Read Post (Ctrl-R) function.

  • Other minor changes

 

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B4

 

  • Fix bug where bad post in newsgroup caused crash.

  • Added MOST REQUESTED FEATURE to arbitrarily re-order the download list.

  • Improved drag and drop capabilities.  Now can do "sparse selection" of items to drag.

  • We broke the POST function.  We'll fix it before 3.31 goes out.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B3 Build 2407 Fixes/Enhancements 2/15/01

  • 3.31B3 fixes a problem introduced in 3.31B2 when we implemented the DirectPC fix.  NewsBin was failing on news servers requiring authentication.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.31B2 Build 2406 Fixes/Enhancements 2/13/01

  • Newer version of DirectPC local news server did not support a command NewsBin was using.  It is fixed now.

  • Fixed possibility that posts were lost during header download on slow machines (i.e. <400MHz on a cable modem).

  • First Time Records (FTR) setting now defaults to 10,000.
