-Use numbers when retrieving articles. Retrieving by message-id
-is disabled at some servers.
+Store requested articles by group + number. This would allow to create
+pseudo-groups (like <groupname>.requested) that contained only fully
+downloaded articles in overview mode (very nice and clever
+idea sent in by a user, it would make using overview mode much easier).
+Second advantage: Noffle would work with servers that have retrieving
+articles by message-id disabled.
 
 Expire should clean up empty request/outgoing directories, so they will not
 exists forever after a server change.
