NOS 0.42

Where can I get the full docs on NNTP commands. The FAQ's I have do 
not go into detail about all the subcommands or into much detail about 
the ones they do cover.

Specifically:

1)	Can I stop a large news item once it has started being sent 
	(ie tell the server to stop sending this item but continue 
	sending the remaining items)?

2)	Can I specifically exclude (a currently included group) whilst 
	the news server is connected (and sending stuff from that 
	group)?

3)	How do I gracefully disconnect from the newserver in such a 
	way that NOS will think it has only received news up to the 
	point where I disconnected?

4)	How do I gracefully disconnect from the server - full stop?


TIA

Guy
