Hi!
This feature is related to "Enable auto get headers" in the tasks menu
I u need to download headers everytime u start newspro make sure u unset "Disable auto get headers on start"
If I remember u need also to set a "get/rescan headers every xx mins" for the groups u're interested.

When I now start newspro all headers from all groups will be downloaded. also when in the watch tab only boneless is selected to get headers every 15 minutes. is this a BUG of the program? who can help.

when you start the program it will download headers from all newsgroups with auto-download headers set to some time (it won't download headers automatically when the field is emtpy - you see "off" in the gh/rescan column for respective newsgroups).

thanks Alex it's solved now. I only had set the watch and save to off and thought that the get header didn't matter because of this.

Best regards,
