Subject: getting ticked/dormant article without contacting news server
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2004 11:44:02 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <873c1jwn99.fsf@uwo.ca> (raw)
My news server has just disappeared. I'd like to be able to enter
my news groups and view the ticked and dormant articles, and copy
them to a mail group for future reference.
I don't normally use the agent, but I tried going unplugged, and was
still unable to enter the group. The messages I got were:
Retrieving newsgroup: comp.lang.python...
Opening nntp server on news...
Denied server
Opening nntp server on news...failed
gnus-select-newsgroup: Couldn't open server
My *Server* buffer does show that the server is agentized:
{nntp:news} (denied) (agent)
I can use gnus-group-make-directory-group to view the cache
directory as a group, but it has no knowledge of which articles
are ticked and which are dormant, and probably also contains
other recent articles that I don't want to save.
Any suggestions?
Dan
