I run       two servers - one for nntp and the other for nntps. Do you run the       smapi version? I doubt anyone else does since I could not get it to       post messages without crashing when I started running it. But       otherwise, the behavior you cite is similar to what I saw with my       modified version so I believe there are issues to hunt down.              ---        * Origin: The Byte Museum - news: news.bytemuseum.org (1:19/10)    |
