Hi,
leafnode tries to lookup the hostname in /etc/hosts ... my hostname is
me.foo.bar - a valid FQDN. But leafnode always returns 127.0.0.1 when
generating the second part of my message-id. So I have to set the
hostname in /etc/leafnode/config.
Is this a bug and what can I do?

Speed, pure speed. my first idea was to use nntp, but the Gnus manual

I haven't used leafnode on Debian. I installed it on a RedHat machine,
but from a tarball (ie not with an rpm). I had to change the

Have you tried reading the leafnode-generated message in the newsgroup
you wish to subscribe to? You must do this to activate leafnode's
downloading of that newsgroup's articles.
