    When using the article filter in a  news group, it would be nice if
    there could be a .not. or invert button somewhere. So if the filter is
    "Banana", then I'd like to be able to hit the button and select all the
    articles (so I can delete them or mark them read) that DON'T have Banana
    in there...

    The [Send Now] button puts the posting job at the bottom of the task
    queue. I'd like it if posts went to the top. Yeah, I know that could
    wind up being an issue someday for large binary attachments. Maybe that
    could be addressed by detecting an attachment, and putting it at the
    top/bottom of the task queue based upon that?

    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.

[ ] Martin Wulffeld <tranquil@mail.dk>
    6) Ignoring a thread Pan should automatically move to the next unread  
    thread/message.

    12) Maybe I didn't look close enough but I can't find a purging
    mechanism!?

    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.

    A useful option, I think.

    there are two problems :

    2) New unread headers are not marked as read when I read them

[ ] 2. I wanna expand on Christian. I would like to have customizeable headers
    above the messages-bodies. E.g, I'm interessted in the newsreaders the
    guys use. Perhaps othe are more interessted in only few more headers and
    don't wanna see *all* the headers.

    Never checked out printing in PAN before: It works fine but PAN
    shouldn't print the Message - Header IMO. Is there already a solution to
    that behaviour?

[ ] "lock" an article to prevent purging of header & body

[ ] "Dan Mann" <daniel_b_mann@hotmail.com>
    Pan is great!  One suggestion here: How about being able to pan (no
    pun intended) images inside the preview pane by holding down the mouse
    button and moving the mouse around the screen (like gqview does)?
    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.

[ ] Wendell Dingus" <wendell@BISonline.com>
    Yesterday I opened a group and tagged the
    first 3 files at the top of the list. I inadvertantly also had the "minus
    sign - book pic - name of group" at the top of the article pane selected. I
    pressed SHIFT-S and nothing. I did so a few times before realizing I had the
    group name selected also. No biggie, just might confuse someone...

[ ] Adam Warner <iconsult@ihug.co.nz>
    For example, I just posted to nz.test and aus.test (nz.test; aus.test).
    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.

[ ] 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)
    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.

[ ] "best_before_'89" <ohmwork@technologist.com>
    When I search for an article by a certain sender, it gets found. The
    problem is that when it is highlighted, and I click on it, it does not
    open.  I have to click on a message either side of it first, THEN I go
    back and click on the found message to open it.

    This has been reported several times to the mailing list and on
    news.software.readers.  I have the same problem so I quit using pan because
    the display takes up all of my 800x600 display on my latitude ls laptop.

[ ] Paul Smith <ozric99.nospam@lineone.net>
    I've selected the "use single click preview" option but am not getting
    the effect I'd like.  I'd like to press N to go to the next unread
    message and display it in the preview pane similar to pressing Ctrl-U in
    Outlook Express, but I still seem to have to actually click on the
    message in the thread pane to display it in the preview pane.  Is there
    something I'm doing wrong?  Apologies if I've missed something obvious.                         

[ ] When you go back to the articles tab from the message tab, the
    view is down at the bottom of the window instead of up at the
    current article, where it should be.

    It would be nice to have some sort of bandwidth limitation; since the
    news server is usually the closest thing it seems to get high bitrates
    at the expense of other more distant services.

[ ] 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. 

[ ] 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.

[ ] Convenient jumping from one newsgroup to another from a post's newsgroups

[ ] In composer: add "Save as Draft" and "Delete"

[ ] some way to do one-shot tasks without waiting a turn in the queue.

[ ] Nicer handling of message headers (ie, a list of commonly-used headers)

[ ] a case-sensitivity toggle for rule criteria? 

[ ] replace ^I with spaces when posting a message to skip tab damage

[ ] tree view for groups?

[ ] the subject Find: filter doesn't find new subjects nested in a thread

[ ] I'd like to select the whole text of the message (like ctrl-a in (Francesco)

[ ] For the newsgroup list pane, I find it irritating to have to set the
    properties for each of the groups I subscribe, I rather liked Agent's way
    of setting default properties for all of the subscribed newsgroups, and
    being able to 'adjust' using the property for a particular newsgroup to
    override the default properties.

[ ] Andreas Scherbaum <ads@htl.de>
    And another thing, more a feature request: is it possible to get
    a window to fetch a single message from server with a given
    message-id? Most references to other articles coming this way
    so it would be nice to give pan the message id and it will
    fetch the message from the news server and display it.

    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)

[ ] Jason Baietto <jason@metrolink.com>
    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.

[ ] 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)
