Yeah, yeah. That's the kind of comment I got when I reported this problem earlier. But I didn't "fail to realize" anything. Pan changed my 8 back to 4. It doesn't do that any more. I just now, as an experiment, quit Pan, changed the max from 8 to 20, and started Pan up again. It's still 20, and evidently Pan honored my request to change the max, because I saw "Tasks: 13/33" in the task bar when I asked it to read headers for all my subscribed groups. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
