Actually, in my case, I'm adding in whatever way pan adds when the download (not save) function is hit. Old-pan used to download in the order they appeared in the header pane, new-pan seems to download them in random order. The only time front/back/by-age appears is if you save. Download to cache doesn't give one that option, and it doesn't seem to do it in any logical order -- in particular, not by age, which is how I usually have the header pane sorted and usually want it, and not by subject or author either. As the posts come in, I see the icons switch from queued to cached randomly, bottom, top, middle, seemingly no order at all. As Tim said, old-pan had it right. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
