Re: Couple of nfilter Questions

(2) nfilter seems to pass thru cross-posted messages as separate

>items, thus evading Agent's "cross-post-show-only-once" feature. Any >nfilter fix for that?

What method does the Agent use? Either it keeps a history file of the Message-ID:s of the postings you've seen, or it uses the Xref: header and marks each post in the other groups as read after you've read it the first time. (Both methods are used in other newsreaders).

I gather nfilter sets up a local proxy site. The Xref: header is marked with server name, so if Agent is set up to use a new server name for the proxy, it may be ignoring the header as it doesn't match. Or it's not getting passed on.

I think it _is_ a header mismatch, as you point out.

Yep. That's why I'm such a successful chip designer. I'm a REALLY PICKY ASSHOLE, when it comes to details.
