Actually, no, I wasn't kidding.  I use either Netscape or tin.
Tin routinely chokes because of the large number of groups,
and when it doesn't choke, it's dog slow.  Netscape is better,
but Netscape still insists on downloading all message headers, 
even if they go back for months.  

Can anyone recommend a better news client?
