VanguardLH, XNews will score any header that the connected Usenet server supports with an XHDR call. Regards, Len Agoado agoado(a)msn.com

Maybe it's the luck of th draw but I've hit so few NNTP servers that support XHDR (or XPAT) that I don't bother trying to use them and instead just have the newsreader download the entire message so I get all the headers with the body. I don't do binaries so retrieving the body (to get all the headers) adds little extra time to get the incremental count of new articles. Of course, if I didn't revisit the newsgroups very often then more articles would have to get downloaded and take more time. That the newsreader supports the XHDR command is only half the requirement. |
