Uses

Although NewsLeecher is generally considered a Combination client used to read and download binary and text content from usenet newsgroups, it currently has very limited posting capabilities, and does not support the posting of binary articles.

Features

  • Binary and text article downloads (text posting only)
  • PAR2 support (automatic or manual)
  • Download manager/scheduler
  • Multiple simultaneous connections with multi-server and SSL support
  • NZB file support
  • Automatic RAR file extraction and split archive/file joining functionality
  • Server search function (optional at extra cost)
