Heh, ending these barbaric times is a long-term goal of this project :) Anyways, pushed as commit 3e8a4842d3f0ec51bab024322a934b91ace6f4ed extmsg: use news.gmane.org for Message-ID lookups http://mid.gmane.org/ has not worked for a while, but their NNTP server continues to work. Use that and perhaps give NNTP more exposure. Reported-by: Jonathan Corbet
