Unison is a good enough program for the casual usenet poster, but it lacks many features for the advanced user. I, for one, need to filter my own messages, plus replies to my messages, plus threads I've participated in - for starters.

I wrote a post on my site about what Panic can do to improve Unison:

The UI stuff is pretty ok in Thunderbird, but the UI is *nicer* in Unison. The UI in MTNW was rudimentary, but very functional.
