Hey Quade, thanks for the explanation.
Here's the case: I have recently changed providers (so, servers) and in a pretty large group, since not all headers have been downloaded from the new server yet, i don't know if they are available for downloading. The group is pretty large and a large percentage of the headers has been downloaded, so purging the group and re-downloading all headers would be undesirable at this point.
In NB, i did think that all messages would be stored in one header database but i also though there would be a separate Post/Server table in the database, containing info like the post number and the server this header exists. That's why i asked how to delete them.
Do you think such extra info would be too much/have no real meaning for NB? If a user has several servers active, how does NB handle things? Always gets posts from the server with the highest priority? Try to get a message and if it doesn't exist in that server, try the next one?
