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.


The header of a post does not reveal the newsreader used unless one
has
turned on 'Show All Header Fields'. I don't normally wish to see
all the
header fields because then I must scroll down to read the message.
Do you
keep the header fields shown all the time?
No, but Vic posted as if he knew what reader I was using, when he is
obviously clueless. This was a case where an intelligent person would
have looked at the headers before posting. He also can't seem to
directly answer simple and completely unambiguous questions.
The 'un-ambiguity' may be in the eyes of the beholder. Headers, at
least in
Agent, are not the same as 'Header Fields'.
You asked Vic if he could read headers. He answered that he could. You
responded with a less than flattering comment, because you were
referring
to headers when you meant header fields.

Sure, Harry. Whatever you say.

Harry is way out of his depth of knowledge when speaking about all
things USENET. I proved that a couple of years ago when I outed him.



Whooooooosh.

Start over, braindead.

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)

I agree, the group has went backwards ever since you and Harry and his
girlfriend JimH reappeared. Why don't you disappear again? And that's
not neccesarily meant to you, because alone, you're congenial, but
when you get with the other two, it's a threesome beyond belief.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So...let's review the recent past.
Harry and Jim left for greener pastures and I followed a few days later.
What happened..???
We had clowns like DK posting about us...remember his heading?..
"The three stooges have left the building"
We were gone and yet your fellow 'misfits' couldn't control themselves. You
do know that if Harry, Jim & I disappeared tonight, they'd turn on you in a
New York second. They are here to agitate, instigate and irritate.........
and anyone would do as their victim.
When you think about it...we're doing you a favour by taking all the hits
and attention. Be careful what you wish for.

Well, I answered this before. I'll add there is no reason for me to
care what reader you use by looking at header fields.
I've pretty much given up on usenet Dick Tracy activities, and hardly
ever engage in "technical" discussions since I retired from that.
My original reply to you was to correct the misinformation you posted
about retrieving messages from "unsubscribed" groups with Agent
versions prior to 2.0.
I naturally assumed you had moved on to a newer version because
you seem intelligent enough not to post misinformation about the very
version you are currently using to make the post.
Anyway, my intent was to be helpful.
I wasn't playing "gotcha." You are free to think of me as you chose.
God Bless America!
