No. In 6.50B9 you can set it to priority 1 though, which means "only use it as a last resort".

For me, setting my second server priority to anything other than 10 (what my main server is set to) means it will never download headers. It puts the groups in the download list, but they just sit there. Any way you can make it always download headers no matter what the priority is?

So far it seems good. Headers download no matter the priority level. Thanks.
