Version 1.5.10 of the server apparently requires "read" permission before the NEWNEWS command can be used. This would appear to make "xfer" permission pretty useless. The CHANGES file doesn't seem to mention this change. What's the scoop? -- Brian Thomson, CSRI Univ. of Toronto utcsri!uthub!thomson, thomson@hub.toronto.edu
