Sometimes the server hangs when it has sent 40-200 K headers. (Well, Gnus hangs anyway, I don't know what the server is doing.) In both cases, I'd like to ^G and generate a *Summary* of the headers that the server did manage to send. Is that possible? Today I ^G and try to fetch the group again, but this time with fewer articles at a time. So I must wait for the same headers to be fetched all over again. -- Hallvard
