Package: tin Version: 1:2.3.2-1 Severity: important On a large newsgroup, tin starts to download the headers, but at some point, there's a disconnection. And tin always fails after a reconnection. However, if I start tin again, the connection succeeds, showing the problem occurs only for a reconnection.
With "tin -D 1", here's how /tmp/NNTP looks like. nntp_open() BEGIN nntp_open() news.gandi.net:119 <<< [01:26:48.881604] 200 groups.gandi.net Papercut server ready (posting allowed) nntp_open()
