I think there is a problem with HTSimplify changing the case
of characters in news URLs. Does anyone have a patch already?
For example, using "www" in verbose mode I see:
HTSimplify.. `news:CxL5p8.8EL@nntpa.cb.att.com' into
............ `news:cxl5p8.8el@nntpa.cb.att.com'
...
HTNews: Looking for news:cxl5p8.8el@nntpa.cb.att.com
