It especially crashes when accessing pop and nntp over a Tor proxy. The way it interfaces with the gnu nntp library causes it to crash a lot. This newsreader has become aggravating to use.

Works OK, some grumbles: I haven't got a KF working, have to manually snip sigs, and xposted messages don't seem to get Marked As Read. No idea after that.
