Hallo, the following log demonstrates a Bug in the XOVER command. Some Notes: I'm not the maintainer of the server, so I cannot support additional Infos at this time (but I could contact the admin, if needed). The INN version is outdated, but see above. (It would be easier to check if the error is possibly fixed in a newer version, if it would be easier to access the changelog - I dont want to download the whole tarball) The error could be caused by an inconsistency in INNs databases, but it should be robust enough not to produce the NNTP protocol error described below. See the attachment for the log, note the 2nd XOVER command: except for the incomplete record it misses the trailig CRLF/dot/CRLF sequence.
