Sorry it didn't appear to post so I pulled it from my sent, edited it a bit more and posted again.

[Tbird] also had a bug last week where it re-downloaded all the
messages and now everything older than a week just comes up with an
error.
 Not a problem with Tbird.  A problem with ES (the Usenet provider you
use) where a server went down, the articles database got rebuilt which
resulted in new article articles (which won't match those you previously
downloaded).  See the eternal-september.support newsgroup for more info
from Ray.
Ah thanks for that.  As I've set to retain all messages it should have them locally and I should still be able to access them?

 
One of the other I'm looking for is the ability to retain all messages
in a particular newsgroup.
 Maybe you specified retention periods for folders or in account
settings.
I have the retention set to all for the main usenet group I use on that folder, I don't see anything in account settings for that.

That's not set to delete

Ah, this could be it.  Says it uses the server's retention policies even if you choose to retain messages locally longer, there's no option to prevent that.
Another reason for a different newsreader.

Also built in spellcheck. I remember I tried a couple other newsreaders
like x-news which is supposed to have a way to set up spellcheck but I
couldn't get working.

That was more about different newsreaders, Thunderbird's spell check works fine.

Thanks, really looking for a different newsreader at this point.
Sorry if it feels like I'm flaming you, the heat is directed at TB. You've been very helpful :)
