: The problem is not that Netscape's INN version doesn't implement LIST

	Are you sure?  When I issue this command to my Netscape News
server, I get the following trace:

---cut---
[0]$ telnet news.socom.com 119
Trying 206.108.56.8...
Connected to athena.socom.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
200 athena.socom.com InterNetNews NNRP server Netscape 1.1 951101 INN 1.4 22-Dec-93 ready (posting ok).
LIST ACTIVE socom.misc
501 [active|newsgroups|distributions|schema]  
---cut---

	So, as you can see, it didn't pumped the active file, it just
issued an error code (501).
