Pimmy 3.4 beta 11 - Reading Unfiltered Messages

[Mark Blain]

Just installed the latest beta of Pimmy. The new features are wonderful,
but there is one thing I do not understand.

If I do not use filters, I can see newsgroup headers without downloading
bodies. This is a good idea and very fast.
I want to use filters to follow some threads. What is a fast way to read
the headers of the unfiltered messages in the same group without
downloading all their bodies?

E-mail the author or ask at news.software.readers maybe.

Pimmy authors privately confirmed that this is not yet a feature. You can
either read a group online with no filtering, or you can use filters to
download and organize message bodies and never see the unfiltered ones.

Thanks for the advice, folks.
