Description cshamis1 2006-04-07 00:03:47 UTC
If you point at a non-nntp (or non-functional) server, pan .91 will hang forever.  Even if you go back and correct the server name, purge the task, and try to re-load the groups-list.  Only way around (so far) is to close pan and restart.  

Pan should at least log an error in its event-log if the connection to port 119 is refused.

It's blocking in socket-impl-gio.cc::create_channel().

It might be a good idea to shop that out to a worker thread.
Rewriting it to use nonblocking versions of the same network
functions would be even better.
