	  mistaken as an xover field delimiter
	- Converted Article class to use STL strings internally
	- Fixed problem with multiline header parsing, cited

	  HEAD/BODY/ARTICLE/STAT, eg. '423 No Such Article In
	  Group'
	- Server class uses new Overview() method with string
	  return type.

	  redundant header loop (looks like a diff error crept
	  in), missing \n at end of Errors-To:, and added error
	  detection + debug output for popen()/pclose()
	- Fixed NULL checks for char* oriented messageid/from
	- Changed the NewsHostname and LogFile configuration
	  directives to ServerName and ErrorLog, respectively to
	  match Apache.

	- The Server class no longer uses the "find" command to

	  longer neccessary to create the .info file in the
