my news.mozilla.org newsgroup keeps showing me that there's one new post in netscape.public.mozilla.dom but when I go to the newsgroup there's no new posting. I've tracked it down to the "news.mozilla.org.rc" file In a working copy I have: netscape.public.mozilla.dom: 1-7845 and in the NON working copy I have: netscape.public.mozilla.dom: 1-7790,7792-7845 is there a bug in the NNTP code?
ok. a little more investigation: 7791 which is the missing posting number is a cancelled message. so when I connect I get: Receiving: 211 7251 3 7845 netscape.public.mozilla.dom so Mozilla says that I have one new posting. since mozilla thinks I've read: 1-7790,7792-7845 and the server has 7845 postings
Summary: newsgroups always shows one new post but there's none → newsgroups always shows one new post but there's none (due to cancelled posting)
