Howdy, I would probably try to look for/file a bug on this, but I really don't know the correct terminology... I read news.admin.net-abuse.email via newsguy. This newsgroup tends to attract a lot of netnews "abuse", but fortunately newsguy does a great job of filtering most of it out (yea). This is manifested in Mozilla by showing a large number of unread messages for the newsgroup when the news server is opened, but when the group nanae is selected only the "good" messages show up and the number of unread messages goes way down. So far all is normal. However, there is quite a long delay delay between the time the group is selected and the messages and new unread number showing up. Typically in excess of 5 seconds or so. And furthermore, there is no sign of activity, not even the red moving Mozilla. It appears that the application is dead, but it is not. Other newsgroups behave normally. Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.4+) Gecko/20010916 -- My real email is akamail.com@dclark (or something like that).
