It seems this was a great suggestion, as I know what happens now after looking at Wireshark's output. I have different news servers configured. One of the servers, is not valid anymore now (netcat to port 119 of this address gives "Connection refused"). It seems like Pan correctly gets the new headers van GMane. At this moment, the status bar changes from "Tasks: 1/1 to 0/1". But then Pan still tries to contact the server which refuses connections, with 5 seconds intervals. Instead, I think Pan should silently give up trying to connect to that server if it does not work the first time. If interested, I can send the wireshark log (160KB), but I don't think it adds more information to this summary. -- Frederik _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
