Hello,
I need to bump this problem up to
current master/head at 6daf184 please.
AstraWeb is flat-out rejecting some postings
I make, when the "Newsgroups:" header line
becomes word-wrapped, too.
As recorded by Pan in its Event Log,
AW is sending-back this:
> 441 Header does not conform to RFC1036
I opened a problem ticket with AW's techs
on a similar/related case.
There, we finally understood that AW has
a limit of number-of-groups on this line.
They won't accept more than 3 groups here.
Now, we _are_ limiting a crosspost to
3 groups here. But Pan can _still_
word-wrap this line, when including
three _long_ group-names that make Pan
kick-in this strange word-wrap bug.
And so AW (still) won't accept the post.
I must use another NNTP client, in my
case I use Unison (from Panic.com)
since I have a paid license for it,
to post my simple message with the
same 3 crossposted "Newsgroups:" line.
I don't think I can 'make' AW fix this.
We need Pan to prevent _any_ word-wrapping
in the headers, period (safest)
[I believe we do have up to 1K characters
per header-line here, don't we?].
Or, we need Pan to make sure there is
_some_ text on the right-hand-side of
the colon ':', then word-wrap at a later
place on that 'first line', thus creating
'proper' longer header-lines when needed.
See?
(Background: When a non-AW post comes in,
let's say with 5 groups on this line,
AW _does_ allow it to be processed,
then the message does appear in all 5
groups. But us AW members _cannot_
do a simple reply to all 5 groups, see,
which makes us look-up each post
so to reply to each copy manually.
That was the reason I opened a ticket
with the AW techs, to get them to
fix this e.g. let us AW members be
able to post replies to the same
number of groups.
I don't know if they have it fixed,
I don't really care now,
I know how to manually do this now. ;>
But Pan certainly does need fixing
in this area, please.)
I will try to help if needed
(I need detailed instruction if so).
Thanks for reading.
