Get ALL headers

[Lookout]

4.0/32

I clicked on Get ALL headers by mistake. All I want is the NEW ones
however every time I click on get NEW headers it's grabbing ALL. How
do I stop this?

Best way is to use the sample function, and have it update the groups.
Sample for the last 5 days. When it is done, it will remember what
the latest article is for each group, and future "get new headers"
will work right.

Sample is Action -> Get Headers -> Sample Recent Headers

Or you could try "Catch up with newsgroups" to reset the pointers.
Everything to that point would be lost but then you'd get the new
stuff.
The sample recent headers works also.
You could do that to get the new stuff THEN
ACTION-> GET HEADERS -> CATCH UP WITH NEWSGROUPS
to reset it.
