Presently, only the header lines from the overview +are returned and the article is only retrieved on an ARTICLE or BODY command. +The reason for this was that some readers (like pine) retrieve the group +overview by sending lots of HEAD commands and their performance would badly +suffer. On the other hand, some readers (like slrn) cache the header from +a HEAD command, even if a following ARTICLE command gets more header lines, +so that not all header lines are available when reading news in online mode, +before the next start of the reader. But some header lines (e.g. Reply-To) +are important. +Maybe make the behaviour configurable. + ============================================================================= Some day far away =============================================================================
