  • NNTP - Pan news reader

    From Amessyroom@VERT/TL-QWK to All on Friday, July 04, 2025 11:31:52
    Testing PAN news reader on linux. I have successfully connected it
    to news servers, but when using it with toolazy.synchro.net via NNTP

    I cannot retreive articles. I can get group list, subscribe, and see headers.

    But when I select an article, it records the following in
    event log.

    Article "Re: Multimail" is incomplete -- the news server(s) don't have part <6858144B.18520.dove-hlp@vert.synchro.net>

    Any ideas why PAN cannot retreive the articles?

    I don't remember having issues with PAN but I may not have tried connecting to my BBS with it. Have you tried SLRN to see if you have the same problem?

    Look at the BBS log output (from the Synchronet Services server, running nntpservice.js) - that'll likely provide some clues. You can enable more (e.g. debug-level) log output too.

    I don't, But maybe you can test with Thunderbird or another nntp client.
    I already use it whitout problems.
