Does anyone use a QWK reader in Windows 10 or 11? I used a couple in the early 90s but haven't stayed around the scene long enough to bother with one since then. I've started looking for one but I'm disappointed with the ones that I have found.

MultiMail - I'm just not a fan of MM.
BlueMail  - The website listed on the SBBS wiki is dead and a Google search only returned a couple of questionable sites.

Although I've been a console/command line guy since I met my first love in 1981 (a Commodore PET), I'd prefer a GUI QWK reader. I found TitanMail, which is ok but lacking in features and documentation. I don't see any way to use, let alone configure, keyboard shortcuts for simple things like next message, next message in thread, mark thread as read, and so on.

And yeah, I could download the source and hack on it. But I have enough side programming projects that I'd rather be working on and have been sitting on my hard drive, notepad, or swishing around in my head just waiting for me to get a round tuit. ;)

Thanks
