Post resuming

[madcowfred]

Currently posts can't be resumed at all, it would be nice if they could be.

• [ ] Change how Message-IDs are generated:
  • Add a global/SecretKey option, arbitrary length string to use when generating Message-IDs
  • Hash a string consisting of something like "{GPS start time}|subject|secretkey"
  • Message-ID = "{hash}@gopoststuff" or something similar
• [ ] Log the {GPS start time} when starting up
• [ ] Add ability to override the {GPS start time} parameter with a command line option
• [ ] If overridden, send "IHAVE messageid" commands to server for every article before posting

why not use the message-id that the usenet server provides? you can then write those to a file as you post stuff

Any idea on when this might be implemented? The header check comes in handy.
