if you click on a link like this: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup and dialog saying: "Do you want to subscribe to microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup" I'd like a dialog saying: "Do you want to subscribe to the newsgroup microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup from the newsserver msnews.microsoft.com" and if it's a snews server: "Do you want to subscribe to the newsgroup microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup from the secure newsserver msnews.microsoft.com" 20020813
Good suggestion. Just a couple of wording changes: "Do you want to subscribe to the newsgroup microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup on the news server msnews.microsoft.com" and "Do you want to subscribe to the newsgroup microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6.setup on the secure news server msnews.microsoft.com"

The text change is easy but I think there's also needed some code change at: http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/mailnews/news/src/nsNNTPProtocol.cpp#1136

Well in theory newsgroups aren't server specific...

Yes, but maybe you want to avoid some specific servers for some reason and fetch the newsgroups from others. This should be doable easily.

In theory newsgroups aren't server specific. But when you click on a subscribe link, you will subscribe to the server that is in the link and this one is maybe one you don't want.
