The reason pan was refusing to fetch articles from gmane.org is that I had another server set as "primary" AND set to zero connections. I think pan was waiting for that primary server to ask for the article first -- but of course pan couldn't ask the primary server because its number of connections was set to zero. Setting that primary server to "fallback" allowed pan to query all the other fallback servers, including gmane. This isn't exactly a bug, but the behavior is unexpected. Maybe pan should refuse to set a primary server to zero connections? Or at least give us a warning? _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
