I got the headers for a file spread over 2 servers - my ISP and my Premium (set up as fills only.)
The ISP had 90% and the premium 100% of the segs.
Sadly my ISP is very poor and regularly reports that files are not present when they are etc. > * Part #16 is not available at "NTL" anymore. (423 No such article in this group)
Newsbin Pro has a retry count and as such repeatedly attempts to get the segs of the ISP until it succeeds (or retry count is exceeded) before using the lower priority server.
NL tried once, gave up and left it for the Fills server.
Without a retry option for less reliable servers NL will cost me money by using my premium account more than is necessary.
