Description:
------------
The getOverview function returns also references, can we hide them and add the number of references in the array.

Maybe this is an option for the getReferencesOverview function but thats not working jet. (v 0.11.2)

getOverview() returns exactly what the server sends, and except for the fist few headers (subject, author, date, message-id, references, byte count, and line count) it's entirely up to the server to decide which headers to send. Currently I see no point in trying to hide any header the server chooses to send...

getReferencesOverview()is used, when only the references of a number of articles is wanted (e.g. when calculating a threading tree).

Both the getOverview() and getReferencesOverview() methods is based on NNTP Extensions (RFC 2980), which means that not all servers support them!

I haven’t used the package myself for ages, but doing a minor test against news.php.net, both methods seem to be working...

Closing this bugger - it didn't seem to lead anywhere...
