Hi folks!

Is it possible to save newsgroup list from server locally? What I mean, 
currently when I hit Ctrl-T in Newsgroup header, Pine gets the list from 
server. Having very slow link, I am forced to wait 4-5 minutes for 
completion. Is it possible to save the list locally and manually 
'refresh' it if necessary (much as Netscape does)?

Also is it possible to get a 'hierarchical' view of newsgroups? That is 
to get a alt.*, comp.* and so on at first level and then descend as 
necessary? (Again much as Netscape does - I am not much of a fan of 
Netscape but it has some fine points).

If it is not implemented, consider it as Feature request :-)

thanks in advance and
			Happy New Year to you all!
