Auto retrying get new headers on a server error

[Bert]

Hi Alex,

A question.
Usenetserver.com has many problems lately. Many, many times connection refused. But after a few times trying it works again.
With bodies there is no problem, as Newspro tries again itself, but when I get connection refused with getting new headers Newspro doesn't try it again.

Is it possible in a way I don't know yet? Sometimes I have to try it 30 times before it starts getting headers without errors. Hammering the server seems to be the only solution to get a connection.

Bye, Bert

you need to add the error to recoverable errors in properties->general, recoverable errors.

if it is socket error you just add its error number (no leading zeros), if it is string error - a matching wildmat pattern.

then tasks producing the error will be retried, the number of retries set in properties->servers.
