two servers

Postby lesgrandfomage » Sat Nov 10, 2012 8:31 pm

Will newsbin keep the headers from two different servers separate? giganews and easynews I want the headers stored separately., how do I get newsbin to download all headers from a newsgroup? do I have to purge the newsgroup? I just want to be sure I'm downloading all headers from the newsgroup. What should the display age be set to in options, I want all headers to show.

Thanks

1 - They're combined. There's nothing you can go do change this. A question might be why would you want to keep them separate?

2 - Right click "Download all Headers"

3 - Purge how? "Storage Age" tells Newsbin how many days you want to keep around.

4 - "Display Age" is simply the "every day" setting. You can always right click "Show all" to see them all.

Easynews has a limited collection of headers compared to giganews. You can use giganews headers to download from easynews though. I'd suggest downloading headers from Giga and not bothering downloading them from Easy.
