I got all the messages. My newsserver's cache is very large and messages
don't expire.
I had only "Match only unread articles" checked. If I uncheck that option and
check "Match only cached articles" the thread display looks normal, although
enormously long.
Something changed here from old Pan or I can't seem to get the options setup
as they where. Now I have only "Match only cached articles" selected. I have
a huge list of all threads in this group. It seems that threads that have a
new post are double-underlined. In the above case, "AMD patent about inverse
hyperthreading" is double-underlined. If I select it, all the subthreads are
displayed correctly with new articles in bold. That's fine.
I think before the way it worked for me was: I grabbed new headers. Pan
displayed unexpanded threads, but _only_ the threads that had new posts, the
double-underlined threads in new Pan. When I expanded the thread, I seen all
the old articles and the new ones were in bold.
Can I get this behavior with new Pan?
