Package: gnus
Version: 5.10.6-0.CVS.20050317-1
Severity: normal
When I am looking at some newsgroups with Gnus online or "plugged", some
of the articles in the summary buffer look like:
Q [ 0: ]
(presumably these are earlier articles in sparse threads)
If I middle-click on these, Gnus reports that it is fetching articles,
but actually fails miserably because it asks the news server for
negative article numbers! For instance, if I (setq nntp-record-commands
t) then I see things like,
20060302T222100.683 chiark ARTICLE -84
If I start gnus-unplugged instead, then if I go back to those articles
and middle-click on them, the Q changes to an E, and I can see the
articles just fine in the article buffer. (I pretty much fetch all
articles.) It would be great if, when plugged, instead of bizarrely
trying to use negative article numbers, it would just pull the articles
from the agent's fetched articles instead, or at least request something
more sane from the news server.
I have no .emacs file.
My .gnus.el is below.
