REQ: Server quickswitch (Profiles?)

Most Usenet providers offer different servers (like US and EU) and some also different ports. I think if you change the server and/or port address in the current session UE will not take those new setting. You have to close the program and restart then it uses the new address. So I would like to see a folder in the servers pane to create quick switch profiles. Let's say you create the following folder:

Newshosting
Server nhxl.newshosting.com with different ports
119
7000
8000
9000
Server news.ams.newshosting.com with port 119

So maybe it would be possible to quickly create those, with copying? It would mean having the same credentials for all those profiles, maybe have a checkbox beside and simply click it?

You can copy server's (including credentials) in the servers tab (F5).

Then in your serverpane you can enable or disable servers.

Hey, thanks, this actually works very very well. Now I can simply switch around if one route is congested.
