If you provide your setup it might help us help you. But this should be fast so as long as it works it shouldn't be a problem time-wise. But if it doesn't work, and this should be clear early on, then no, it isn't good if this stalls everything else. But even so, can't you escape from it with C-g when it happens? > ATM, I have 42 feeds which are showing "*:" as one > feed didn't respond, for whatever reason, and it has > caused all of them to show that they couldn't read > their feed. Is "feed" analogous to a news- or mailgroup? If so, what you describe shouldn't happen unless all those feeds are from the same server. Then it should happen because it is the server that is down or otherwise unreachable from your client (computer, and Gnus) and this would then affect all feeds. -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
