    When reading articles using shortcut key N (for next unread article),
    the articles do not get marked read, although when pressing M (mark
    as read) the article only then gets marked read.

    > count in the group list change?  Also, if after it's not marked read

    The unread count stays the same. When I come back, it is still displayed
    as unread (the closed envelope icon). Also, I quit Pan and restart it and
    the article is still unread. Also, when I get new messages (the A shortcut
    key), the already read articles are still marked as unread and then it's
    already a total mess :(
    > BTW, is this for all articles or just some of them?
    This is for all articles in all groups. I think I first noticed it a
    couple of days ago when I updated from CVS.

    3) When handling a group with lots of (let's say around 10000) messages
    Pan is quite slow to use. For instance select all threads and selecting
   'Ignore threads' the message window blinks for a couple of minutes.

    1) When in a thread and you press minus several times the thread should
    continue collapsing until at the 'root' of the thread. It's a pain to
    have to move to a part of the thread for collapsing it further.

[ ] Martin Wulffeld <tranquil@mail.dk>
    5) Selecting an ignored thread Pan will load the article. If I have
    ignored a thread I absolutely do not want it to be loaded. If I want it
    loaded I should have to un-ignore it.

    1. Steps to reproduce:
    Select a thread which has several replies. Press the [+] button on
    the left of it. Select one of the early replies and press on
    [+] again to close the thread.
    Result:
    In the thread (header) pane the cursor will be on a line which is         
    (number of replies - number of previously selected reply)       
    higher than the thread where it was opened.

[ ] From: Kevin Gottsman <gottsman@chicagonet.net>
    One annoying bug in Pan is that it opens multiple downloads for the same
    article. For example: If I click on a subject with an attachment, it begins
    to download. If I also press 'o' to open the file, then it begins a second
    download. I think it would be good if Pan was smart enough to realize that
    the article is already being downloaded.

[ ] It's real easy for dead articles to not get expired, which is annoying when

    Pan is great!  One suggestion here: How about being able to pan (no

    This would be awesome because I wouldn't have to depend on the
    scroll bar(s). Right click zoom 1:1 and fit window (along with memory
    of this setting) would be great as well.

    If I follow up to nz.test then the cross-posting works.
    However if I follow up to aus.test then I am only posting to aus.test.
    This is a verified problem. There also appears to be an issue where
    replies to a cross-post are only seen in one of the newsgroups.

[ ] Martin (pan-users)
    What I'd really like to see is (at least an option for) the delete key
    to not only delete the current message, but also select/display the next
    message. One thing I've always liked about Agent is that it allowed the
    user to combine the ease and paned display of a GUI with a setup for
    (mostly) keyboard use that allows the user to read through a lot of
    messages very fast.

[ ] Jordan Nelson (pan-users)
    It would be very helpful if you could configure Pan to run a system call
    (like a perl script or something) with the filename of the just-decoded
    file as the first argument.  This could allow for doing whatever you want
    to a file, such as automatically sorting it, logging it to a database,
    etc.  Am I making any sense?

[ ] Ryan Ware (pan-users)
    The first is a way to save the task list so that it doesn't disappear if
    you exit.  On rare occasions, Pan has crashed on me after I've selected
    what to download for the night.  It would be nice if I could just reload
    what was in the task list.

[ ] Ryan Ware (pan-users)
    Also, sorting the tasklist by date/time the article was posted would be
    nice.  My connection isn't very fast (iDSL) and it would be nice to start
    with what's going to expire first.

[ ] Ryan Ware (pan-users)
    It would also be nice to be able to merge groups together so that you
    didn't have to see the same posts in group after group.  However, this can
    have a tendency to use a _lot_ of memory.

[ ] Johnathan Moran
    <saving the queue for Pan's next session> could be handy, though somewhat
    at cross purposes with flagging articles. In the past Pan would leave the
    little triangle image there for saving an attachment even if the download
    had been cancelled.  I would use that to go back and download the
    attachments if for some reason I had to  end what was in progress. However
    Pan no longer does that and few times I've taken a screenshot of the task
    list when I had painstakingly assembled a large download and then needed
    to end it.

[ ] "best_before_'89" <ohmwork@technologist.com>
    When I search for an article by a certain sender, it gets found. The

    back and click on the found message to open it.

[ ] Speaker-To-Animals (speaker@computation.com)
    The Pan newsreader seems to have a bad bug.  If I select an article in
    the newsgroups list to save and then navigate to Folder Tools and "Move
    Article", Pan just complains that I have to select a target folder in the
    Groups list...
    but everytime I select the Folder to move to, the newsgroup headers for
    the newsgroup I'm in dissapear and so I can't select an article to move.
    Either I'm not doing something right, or this is a seriously bad design
    flaw in the interface.  Exactly how am I supposed to save articles from
    newsgroups in Pan?  It doesn't seem possible...
    and Pan REALLY needs to implement drag and drop.  Come on its the 21st

      bottom (threading still functional, though!)
    - when scoring an article down and it reaches a certain lowpoint(slrn

      were killed before.  However, if an article got a low score for
      example due to a certain newsreader (OE), but is a response to

[ ] Doug Palmer <doug@charvolant.org>
    And for a difficult one. Is it possible to set up a rule action which says
    'delete/mark as read this article and all the followups to this article
    (or depth-n followups)'? This would be very useful in conjunction with a
    spam/bozo filter. There are certain bozos that post in such a way as to
    almost guarantee that the replies spiral into a mess of off-topic flaming.
    Actually, depth-n followups would probably be the most useful, as things
    settle down after a while; setting it to depth-1 would take care of most
    problems. It wouldn't matter too much if this action gets things wrong
    from time to time, as articles expire. But it would save a lot of pruning
    time on potentially interesting megathreads.

[ ] Spoiler
    Some time ago I implemented spoiler-support for pan, it's easy
    enough - when you encounter "^L" (control-l, formfeed), you "mute"
    the following text - you can copy most of the code from the
    mute-quoted-text routine.  It's common in all newsgroups discussing
    tv-shows for example. 

[ ] Attribution Line:
    Different Attribution line according to what newsgroup you're in:
    In German newsgrouop I use "X schrieb:" instead of "X wrote:"
    Different possibilities of attribution line - currently Pan has
    message-ID, author and date, I'd like to differentiate between
    author-name and author-email, some people might want to have
    subject and newsgroup (even though I personally don't see the
    need for anything other than "X wrote:")

[ ] Special-character-decoding
    Has this gotten better?  I remember there were some special cases
    where the decoding didn't work correctly.  Also, how does Pan handle
    detecting the correct charset for posting?  Some people might be using
    iso-8859-13 for example and that would need to be declared in the headers.

[ ] Cross-posted articles
    If I read article x in group y and it was xposted to group z, then 
    ant tit to be marked read when I enter group z.  I know this requires
    database-synching of the different groups which, probably, is a PITA,
    but it's really neat.  Maybe one could do this through a filter?
    mark read if article was already read in other group or something?

[ ] "Dan Stromberg" <strombrg@nis.acs.uci.edu> 
    Is there a way of piping an article through a filter?  trn does this
    with the "|" command - I've found it really useful.  Even better than
    that would be if there were a way of configuring pan so you have a
    configurable button you can click that you've preassociated a command
    with, that'll do the pipe without having to type the command each time.
    I'm particularly interested in this so that I can pipe the ascii diagrams
    in rec.games.go to a filter that makes the diagrams more presentable.
    But this could also be helpful with unsharing source code and such too.

    -showing emoticons as images. (like mozilla does)

[ ] Jan Schaumann
    do we want Pan to support "posted-and-mailed" -

    do we want Pan to support "mail-copies-to" -

    do we want pan to support spoilers -

[ ] queue.c's g_slist_append is non-optimal (GLib 2.0: Use GQueue)

    Pan suggestion - have an option to check all subscribed newsgroups for
    new messages on startup.

[ ] Jim Henderson <jhenderson@bigfoot.com>
    Date/time is an option I like to have available, though, since I use
    Netscape to read the same groups at work and know what time I'm caught
    up through on the two servers I use most...
    (Analysis: plugging in date/time into a rule and saving the rule to
    have to apply it would be annoying; better to have the 'apply' button
    let the user fill in fields somehow)

    I absolutely love pan, but I have a minor feature request.
    Can you add resettable per-server download counters so that
    I can keep track of how many megabytes I've downloaded from
    a given server?  Pan makes it so easy to download stuff that
    I've exceeded my nntp provider's limits twice now.
    Thanks in advance and thanks for a terrific product.

    I'd like an Online/offline button for each server, so I don't have
    to go to the Prefs window when I want to change the online/offline status.

[ ] Matthew Lenz <hohlraum@nocturnal.org>
    i dunno how newshark does this, but it associates a 'life' percentage
    to articles and gives you an idea as to how much longer a specific article
    (or binary post cluster) will be around before being dropped from the
    server.  It also lets you sort by this percentage in the download pane.
    (so you can be sure to download the oldest article first)

[ ] Matthew Lenz <hohlraum@nocturnal.org>
    preview a binary attachment.  (for example only download and decode the
    first N number of parts and then launch in associated viewer.)

[ ] python/perl hooks

[ ] It can open all kinds of links without forcing netscape on me

[ ] virtual folders - one for programming, one for gardening

[ ] x-face support?

[ ] add task saving/loading so that task lists can be saved and run later.

[ ] Let the user go offline immediately after a task is completed, instead of
    recycling sockets.  (This will probably be in the form of putting the
    "Close server connection after N seconds idle" control in the online
    preferences dialog)

[ ] Add support for SSL. <http://www.moxienet.com/lynx/> has patches for SLL
    support in Lynx, which points the way pretty nicely.  (Note to users:
    I need an account on an SSL news server;  please mail charles@superpimp.org
    if you can provide one for testing.)

[ ] Jan Schaumann <jschauma@netmeister.org>
    Shortcut to edit a message in pan.sendlater, possibly 'e'
    (Analysis: just make it more prominent in the menus)

[ ] binary retrieval druid (wizard like for automatic binary "sucking").

[ ] "Yes, and go offline afterwards" choice in "Go Online?" dialog

[ ] perhaps add 'previous unread article' back in

[ ] add 'next group' and 'previous group' back in

[ ] Add the option to track any thread in which the user-specified author
    is a participant

[ ] specify which server to send posts through, rather than always using
    current server

[ ] search headers from multiple groups

[ ] delete old articles as a group grows to larger than N articles

[ ] pan-users: status bar for "no new headers" "message sent successfully!" etc
    (gnome_app_flash, if we only had a status bar. :)

[ ] group selector for crossposting, so you don't have to type in the names.

[ ] pan-users: single-click to open all threads  (>2x)

[ ] xnews-like text toolbar

[ ] pan-users: extern app to pass messages through before they're posted.

[ ] prefs option to check server for new messages when you load a group

[ ] more search options to "find" dialog? -- filter by date

[ ] log viewer improvements: coloring based on priority, error, etc

[ ] per-group configuration options: logging

[ ] group-centric design?

[ ] "Michael J. Venables" <michael@ronin-group.org>
    an indicator as to online status
    (There's a status light graphic under the "Online Settings"
    but I can't see that that actually gets displayed anywhere.)

[ ] "Michael J. Venables" <michael@ronin-group.org>
    a button to toggle online status

[ ] "Michael J. Venables" <michael@ronin-group.org>
    a leech function (like NewsBot (http://www.sb-software.com/))
    for viewing, filtering and grabbing all binaries (independent
    of the news thread viewer itself)

    Option to always make the article pane have the focus, so that 
    mouseless reading is easier, e.g. if you hit the log file button, 
    after a user-specified time the focus reverts to the article.
