1
Start MacSOUP. If you have already configured MacSOUP for another news server, close your current session by clicking the Ablage menu, then Schließen (close).

Either way, choose Neue Einstellungsdatei (new configuration file) from the Ablage menu next. The program requires that the new settings are saved using an arbitrary name. We will use musterfrau.

A window with the selected configuration's name will be shown.

If you're using MacSOUP for the first time, you'll be asked for your email account and your sender details automatically. If you have already created an account, or want to use a different account, go to the MacSOUP menu and select Einstellungen (settings). In the settings window choose either New... to create a new email account, or Change... to amend already existing account settings.

Then, select Einstellungen (settings) from the MacSOUP menu and switch to the Server pane using the dropdown box. Enter the news server name, that is News.Individual.NET, after NNTP-Server, as well as your personal username after NNTP Username and password after NNTP Paßwort (c.f. your registration email).

Storing your account information in the news reader's configuration is a potential security risk. If you are unsure, please refer to our FAQ at http://news.individual.net/faq.php#1.6.

From the Spezial menu select Verbindung zum Server... (connection to server). Make sure that only Liste aller Gruppen holen (fetch group list) is checked and click Start. MacSOUP starts to fetch the entire list of groups.

Select the group you wish to read by clicking its name from the list and dragging it into the overview window from step 2. Alternatively, select Neue Newsgruppe... (new newsgroup) from the Spezial menu and enter the name in the Gruppe field.

The group you just added will then appear in the overview window.

Set the properties of the group you wish to read via Spezial -> Newsgruppen-Einstellungen... (newsgroup preferences). We recommend to fetch the headers only, select Nur Header holen (fetch new headers only). All other settings can be left on their default. Confirm your settings by clicking OK.

Again, select Spezial from the menu, then Verbindung zum Server (connection to server). This time check News holen (neue Artikel oder Header) (fetch news - new articles or headers). You might want to check Nach neuen Gruppen fragen (ask for new groups). Click Start and MacSOUP starts to fetch the list of new messages.

We recommend to fetch only the newest 200 articles as suggested.

10
The headers of the articles are fetched now.

You can see the header lines of downloaded articles by double-clicking the name of the newsgroup in the configuration window (main window). Based on this data you can decide which threads should be fetched completely. Select the threads or articles you are interested in by checking the first column. A checkmark will appear.

12
Again, select Verbindung zum Server... (connection to server) in the Spezial menu. In the dialog window at least Markierte Header holen (fetch selected headers) should be checked now. Other boxes might be checked if required. Click Start.

Now the selected threads and articles are retrieved.

You can read a retrieved article by double-clicking it in the message overview.
