I don't think this is a SeaMonkey problem but rather a news
server problem. I don't have this problem with any other group
on "news.mozilla.org" or any other server for that matter.

It's the news server. For some real excitement, use repair folder(
that
or delete the newsgroup .msf) and elect to download all
mozilla.support.seamonkey articles... maybe by Monday they will
finish
loading. I eventually have to give up and just download maybe a
1,000
headers instead, go fetch more, etc. BTW: it's not new; been like
this
for just about as long as I can remember.

Forgot to add that I subscribe to multiple news servers and many
newsgroups& news.mozilla.org is the *only* news server that I have
this
problem with.


Cannot say I've been experiencing any problems with this group or this
server!


You apparently have not tried what I suggest. Go ahead, do it& then let
us know how it works for you. I've no problems with the newsgroup
*after* loading 500 or so messages. It's only when you try to load all
msgs, or more than 1,000 msgs for the newsgroup that you run into
issues. Also, afterwards you'll find multiple dead msgs dated
12/31/1969
with 0 (zero) bytes/lines in them.

Click on one and you'll get:

Error!
newsgroup server responded:no such article in group

Perhaps the article has expired

<> (61705)

Sorry, NoOp, I didn't read in the OP's post that they were trying to
download all messages for off-line reading. I haven't downloaded
messages for off-line reading for quite some time.

However, I am now trying to download this group...let you know.


I've just downloaded about 6800 messages, no interruptions or
whatever.....time to go to bed, I'll look at the file tomorrow and let
you know if the messages were saved.


Not a problem, before I came online to get my mail, I switched SM
browser to "Off-Line" mode and was able to check-out some of the 6800
messages from this newsgroup.

Interestingly, I thought if I downloaded 10% of the messages, it would
be the first (or last) 10%, but this was not the case. I checked the
root/original messages of the first fifty threads or so. First ten were
o.k., eleventh was missing, next half a dozen or so were o.k., then two
not downloaded, then more downloaded.

Never got the message that you, NoOp, or the OP, have been getting.
Seems to me I *only* got that message (in the past) if I was trying to
look at a message on a server/group which had a policy of expiring all
messages after a fixed time limit.

now i have:
m.s...ey      2      3671
m.g...al      3      2345
m.test                569
m.e,,,on              175

let the best theosofist kabalist make something  of this
i stay anthropologist like my grandfather Dr. Henk Rudersdorff
apropos, mum told me that they found a leather free mason thing after the war in '46
