Thanks for the info. I have newsgroup articles from 1993 to 2008 and 2008 to present (two archives). So a newsreader move would be tricky. Andy

It might be constructing a "fake" Newsgroups header from the Xref header, because Newsgroups isn't available in the XOVER output but Xref is. Newsstar does this. Most readers/fetchers use the XOVER data whether they're filtering or not, so using the same data for filtering is the most efficient way. -- TH * http://www.realh.co.uk

Perhaps the beta version of Pan uses the Xref header instead of Newsgroups, even if you specify the Newsgroups header. This may be something to take up on the pan-users mailing list - linked from <http://pan.rebelbase.com/>. I don't remember the stable version 0.14.2 doing that last time I used it. -- -- ^^^^^^^^^^ -- Whiskers -- ~~~~~~~~~~

Andy The filtering in Thunderbird v3 is improved quite a bit over previous versions, so its now possible to filter on the newsgroup line. Though it seems its only possible to filter incoming messages to newsgroups, not those messages that have already been downloaded. -- Craig Wallace http://craig.neogeo.org.uk http://www.neogeo.org.uk
