Please bear with me on this, as I'm really trying to clear it up.
I realize I asked concerning this issue yesterday and Diane was kind enough
to post something, but if I may, can I ask for some expansion please?
What I'm trying to nail down is how Entourage handles downloading of headers
when a newsgroup is clicked on each time. Reason I'm asking is that I'm
getting extremely slow download behavior each time I click a group.
For example, I'm set up to receive 300 headers which is standard for
newsgroup defaults...no issue there really. Now I subscribe to a group and
the initial download of headers takes seconds on my system....again normal.
Now I have several groups on the sidebar showing.
At this point, something seems to be changing in the download behavior. When
clicking on a group, I think I should just be getting headers for that group
each time I click on it. This shouldn't take very long.
What's happening each time I click on a group on the sidebar (even if just a
few seconds have passed between leaving a group then returning to it) is
that the barber pole showing connecting to my high speed connection just
turns and turns for several minutes, then changes to headers by the numbers
and finishes with just a few added headers increasing on the sidebar next to
that group.
Can someone tell me what is causing this long download behavior and exactly
how to fix it if possible please.
Many thanks, and please excuse the long post )
