SVN commit 990006 by otrichet: By default, fetch articles using their server-side Id instead of their msg-id. It was the behaviour back in KDE3. Work around broken nntp.perl.org server. BUG: 193550 M +10 -1 nntpjobs.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=990006
Any reason that this fix hasn't been backported to 4.3 branch?
