I'm guessing you (Mark) somehow tickled pan's binary detection algorithm with the subject name (fwiw, the yenc format isn't well specified in that regard, and news clients implementing it end up with a choice of either doing it by the spec and having occasional false-matches, or not, and potentially not recognizing yenc posts that are), and it considers those posts additional segments of one or both of the posts you still see. When you get a post that pan either won't download or simply refuses to display the normal way, context-click on it in the header list, and choose "read article". That has always forced the download (if necessary) and displayed the message for me, here. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
