From Newsgroup: alt.usenet.offline-reader

I posted this a four days ago, but there have been no replies.
Please help!

I have Gravity 2.9.15 beta. Whenever I stat Gravity, it retrieved
not only headers but article bodies. (There are hundreds of jobs
queued up at start, and after the group headers have been retrieved I
can see message after message, "retrieving article {number} from
{group}."

This makes Gravity take a long time to start up, and I don't want to
store articles locally anyway.

In Tools + Global Options + Storage I have both boxes unchecked.
I've checked my newsgroup settings for alt.usage.english, one of the
groups where a lot of articles get retrieved, and there is no
override for article storage.

What is wrong, please, and how can I fix it? I don't want to wait
five minutes or more to start using Gravity!

If overrides are not set then it could be one of the following:

Are any articles tagged?

A rule did it either manually or automatically.

You did a Search and included article bodies, while not storing
bodies locally. If you do that Gravity will try fetch all the
articles bodies for the specified group(s) (and not store the
bodies afterward).

If you are "Watching" a lot of threads, Gravity is getting the
bodies. By default the watch thread rule gets the bodies. You can
edit that rule to not get bodies.

It seems weird that it does it every time on start.
