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.

You forgot a zero. There are currently 66915 msgs on this server:
<http://newsgroupstats.info/reader/news.mozilla.org/mozilla.support.seamonkey.html>

Well 66,916 now.


Hey, NoOp, did you see in my next para I mentioned 10%???? You and the OP were supposedly having troubles downloading 1,000 messages, so my 6,800 was way, way, above your problem level!!


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.



No comment about my last para above, NoOp??
