@ -5246,6 +5246,12 @@ have to disable fetching headers with @samp{XOVER}:
Be aware, though, that this will make entering an @acronym{NNTP} group
much, much slower, so this is not recommended.
One particular scenario in which it can be desirable to not use
@samp{XOVER} is for @code{nnvirtual} groups in order to support
limiting by extra headers (e.g., by the newsgroup of its component
groups). Because group parameters are not inherited, a separate
select method for the component groups with the appropriate
@code{nov-is-evil} set as a method variable is required.
