Hello,
MacCafe has been updated to version 3.02.1.
This version fixes a serious bug in v.3.02 which could make the Edit
menu unusable in certain circumstances. It also includes another bug fix
and some improvements. See the updated documentation for the full list
of changes (you may need to refresh the web page):

To download the new version, please follow the link in my signature. To
install this version, simply replace the old MacCafe.app with the new
one.
Thank you for reading!

haven't used a mac since the 1990s, but 40Tude Dialog is still the
best freeware newsreader (v2.0.15.1, 4d2b38.exe, 3.8 MB, 2005-2-7),
notably listed first in this extensive list of popular newsreaders:

40Tude Dialog
 Plateform: Windows
 License: freeware
 Interface: graphical, single window
 Development: definitively stopped in 2015
 SMTP management: yes
Although development of 40Tude Dialog has been stopped for a long time, it
remains perfectly usable on recent versions of Windows. Its official site no
longer exists, but its very latest version has been carefully archived on the
French site Gratilog.net:
40tude Dialog 2.0 Beta 38 (Built 2.0.15.1) (Fr)
http://www.gratilog.net/xoops/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=105&lid=284
 First download version 2.0.15.1 and install it.
 Then download version 2.0.15.84 (link under the description). The ZIP obtained
 contains only the updated EXE file, which must be pasted into the installation
 folder, replacing the old one.
Also note the existence of this archive:

40Tude Dialog Newsreader
There you will find (functional) download links, a FAQ and above all a copious
list of scripts allowing you to add features to 40Tude Dialog.
Attention
Some of these scripts may not work, and some need an additional library,
available at the bottom of the Downloads page.

(still using 2.0.15.1, works great! upgrades to 2.0.15.84 proved problematic)
