It could. But the whole point of this 'new' usenet hack is to eliminate all code changes to ease support issues for everyone and allow timely upgrades to new vB versions. It also means I don't have to stay up until 4am the day Jelsoft releases a new version

Remember this new version is still in it's infancy after stripping out all the code changes. A lot of the missing features will be readded... and still with no code changes. I just need time to figure out how.

By the way, I can add an option for the usenet post date issue. But remember; new posts may be placed before recent posts. The dates will obviously be in sequence, but you may receive the newer post first. The real problem is when local posts are entered into a thread along with usenet posts. You will nearly always get usenet posts placed before it. I'll add the option with a disclaimer.
