This works well, except for two little problems: (1) I enter a group from the *Group* buffer by pressing RET. This unfortunately coincides with a daemon update. The news scan happens, and then my top-level thread collapses. (It seems like, in general, a daemon update happening while I'm in the group buffer sends the cursor to the top of the buffer.) (2) I'm composing a news post when an update happens. AFAICT the post happens fine, but reading more articles from the same group fails with an "article not found" error. Exiting and re-entering the group mostly fixes things. Any hints/solutions to these problems? pgnus-0.79, using topics and bbdb, if either of those matter... -- David Maze dmaze@mit.edu http://donut.mit.edu/dmaze/ "Hey, Doug, do you mind if I push the Emergency Booth Self-Destruct Button?"
