readerswhenstopped meaning

[Matus "fantomas" Uhlar]

Another one thing:

       -n     The `-n'' flag specifies whether or not pausing or
              throttling the server should  also  disable  future
              newsreading  processes.  A value of `y'' will make
              newreaders act as the server, a value of `n'' will
              allow  newsreading even when the server is not run-
              ning.  The default is to  allow  reading,  but  can
              also  be  changed  with  the `readerswhenstopped''
              option in inn.conf(5).

it seems this doc says also something different then innd. I would suggest
fixing the doc:

'y'  means that readers are allowed even if innd is paused or throttled.
'n'  means that if innd is paused or throttled, it won't allow even readers

 I wonder how much deeper the ocean would be without sponges.
