[comp.sources.d] vn problem

Why does vn display cross-posted articles in all the groups it's been
cross posted to even when I've already read it?  Surely if the
article is cross posted and a reader subscribes to more than
one of the groups the article is posted to, they should still only
see it once.

It creates the display list *BEFORE* you have read any articles.  After that
the display lists are static.
