Details

I think I haven't saw the bug in the list because
it's due to the non-existant subscribing ability
but I think the interface should ask confirmation
for subscribing a Wrong newsgroup like alt. int the tree (it knows that's not in
the D/L list)
or disable the subscribe button when highlighting such a group name and
give another field for subscribing non-listed groups.
Confirming, marking as enhancement. You can actually subscribe to folders like
alt. or comp.  , press OK and it appears in the subscribed list. I guess we
shouldn't allow users to subscribe to such folders.
Build 2000111004 win32.
