[news filters] use HEAD command to allow for more powerful news filters with the head command, we can get all the headers, instead of just the ones we get with XOVER. david suggest that we only do HEAD when there were filters that needed headers we couldn't get from XOVER.

Can we have a new option accessible via config editor to implement this? e.g. when that option is set to true TB uses XOVER, otherwise it uses HEAD and presents the rich message filtering capability based on full & custom headers?
sorry for the spam. making bugzilla reflect reality as I'm not working on these bugs. filter on FOOBARCHEESE to remove these in bulk.
