Gentlepersons:
I've used mutt for years to read mail on my local system.
But just recently I have, for the very first time, used it to read mail
on remote systems (such as news.opera.no, etc). I find that in the
example of Opera, there are over 7000 messages in the news group they
are hosting that I am reading. My newsrc file for that server shows
all but the last few as having been read, but it still takes several
minutes to download ALL the headers whenever I start up Tin and point
it at that server.
This seems strange, why is it downloading all 7000+ headers when I've
already read (or skipped) nearly all the articles?
Is there a way to make it grab only the ones that are new since I last
read that group?
Thanks!
Fred
PS:
I was trying to look around on tin.org to see if I could find an answer
without having to bug you all, but there seem to be a lot of dead/broken
links on that site, as of 11/13, anyway, so I couldn't find anything
helpful to me.
