In a way that is nice, but in my case I don't always have access to  
all servers all the time. As a result pan spends a lot of time trying  
to connect to a server which is not available. Manually adding/ 
removing this server seems problematic as I know the primary server  
is missing articles which can be found on the slower fallback server.  
But if I delete the fallback server how does pan deal with the header  
cache? Does it matter if I don't intend to download those articles?
