If that's where he is when the mood strikes. Can you read headers?

Not sure if you're serious, since you were talking about pre 2.0 as if
you knew it. * All 1.93 and previous Agent versions I've used use
header-based retrievals.
Options allow for message body retrieval upon header retrieval but
mine are set for headers only. *I pull message bodies separately to
avoid pulling in spam.
Parsing the server side message ID's to match the Agent counters
when retrieving "latest" seems to be "slow" part of Agent.
Message body retrieval is normally very fast.

I diodn't ask if Agent could read headers. I asked if YOU could read
headers.
You can't even answer that simple question. It's more and more
obvious that YOU
don't know how, or you would have read mine and known what newsreader
I use.

Great...another DK or Flatulent Jim. *Just what this newsgroup needs
to inprove.
We seem to be going backwards instead of forward. Time to forget this
Dwarf Army business *(too many clowns lining up to enlist)
We need a good old fashioned sheriff who knows how to deal with
agitators, instigators & enablers.

Don, you would be the first one to go, no sheriff wants to deal with a
pansy ass agitator, instigator and enabler such as yourself. *I sure
hope you are not reflective of most Canadians

He's not very bright. *I've spent enough time in Canada to know that he
doesn't represent the majority. *He's just dumb - in the literal sense.


Read the responses from DK, Reggie Loogy and BAR and ask yourself if
you think they really want to improve the tone and quality of this NG
or just want to continue to blame others for it's downfall.

A bunch of old men acting like children.
