Newsgroup names truncated - hate it!

I would like to use Mozilla 1.3.1 for reading newsgroups, but hate the
way it (and Netscape 7xx) truncate the newsgroup names - eg this group
shows as n.p.m.mac in Mozilla, but in Communiator 4..79 the name is
shown in full.

As I peruse 60 or so newsgroups I find it very difficult to know which
is which with the names abreviated.

I don't want to use a dedicated newsreader, and will stay with
Communicator 4.79 if there is no cure for Mozilla, but thought I'd ask
if there is a cure first.

Cheers

David
