This is my first posting to the Yarn-list, and I strongly hope, that all
will work well <g>.
I just started with Yarn (0.9) and Souper (1.5) under OS/2 Warp (German
version without any fixpack) just a week ago, and mostly I'm satisfied
with what I see. But three points are a bit unclear to me. Let's see, if
someone is willing to bring some light into that.
A. Message/Mail volume
I do my e-mail and news with Yarn, and I see a slowdon already after
only one week. I've set an expire time of 30 days, as I did with my old
DOS based reader, too. Today my NEWS.DAT is ~ 11MB and HISTORY.PAG is
~400 kB. - Will this slowdown continue, and will I be forced to reduce
my expire time? Or are the any hints on performance?
B. Threaded reading
I really dislike the way of quoting complete articles, and reduce my own
quotings to the minimum. But sometimes I want to read the complete
article, which is partly quoted. - Is there an easy way to jump directly
to the reference article? Or must I leave the reading window, Shift-V to
all subjects, and select then the proper article?
C. Supersed
I know what cancel of an article means. But what is supersed? Does this
mean, the original article is *replaced* with the superseded one? Do the
other readers receive both articles, or just the superseded one, as it's
overwritten on the *news server*, and not in the reader's program?
TIA! Ralph
