Everything is fetched in either case, but `some' prunes out anything that's not related to what you would otherwise have seen. That is, it only displays those articles that's needed to tie threads together. > Actually, what I was after is this: fetch headers for unread messages, > then fetch headers for the articles mentioned in the References > headers, too. > > But maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part. That would take *way* too long to be efficient, but one could have a `more' setting that wouldn't be so aggressive when pruning. > Hm. Maybe gnus-build-sparse-threads does the trick? I'll see...
