Package: inn2
Version: 2.3.999+20030205-2
Severity: wishlist

ok. maybe this is a problem of suck, i'll look into that later.

However: this behaviour breaks the Logfileformat, 

Feb 20 01:42:14.141 -  <b3186o$1gar84$1 at ID-172775.news.dfncis.de> 437 Unwanted newsgroup "de.admin.net-abuse.mail"
Feb 20 01:42:14.141 j  <b3186o$1gar84$1 at ID-172775.news.dfncis.de> 1792 news-software at example.com cordchan! cordchan2! testfeed!

two spaces.

and innreport reports something like this:

Sites sending bad articles:
Server Total Group Dist Duplic Unapp TooOld Site Line Other
<b3186o$1gar84$1 at ID-172 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0     1
<slrnb57sad.e3q.nanae at n 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0     1
<7gn75vce65td1i46buf23n 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0     1

so my wishlist-item is: please add a '-' in the logfile if the
feeder-field is empty.
