Removing obsolete control messages in INN 2.7

[Julien ÉLIE]

In addition to my previous message:

> Besides sending ihave control messages, your news server need processing
                                                            ^^^^
"needs" of course!

And the last part, to cover all the exchanges:

"""
Similarly, your news server needs processing the ihave control messages it
receives from remote peers.  This step is the easiest to do.  Just add an
C<ihave> entry in F<control.ctl.local> like the one you added for C<sendme>.
B<controlchan> will process these ihave control messages, and generate a
sendme control article for each article present in the ihave control message
but not in your local news server.  These sendme control articles are posted
to the C<to.pathname> pseudo-newsgroup, and will be propagated as described
before.  (Note that there may be two different C<to> groups to create because
the I<sitename> used in F<newsfeeds> may not be the same as I<pathname>.)
"""


Maybe the last time we speak of ihave/sendme articles and investigate in how to make it work (unless of course someone needs it, and asks one day...).
