message properties function

In NP I could bring up the "properties" in a folder/group and find out what group(s) a particular message came from and what servers had it. I liked that.

it does show servers when they are known, but they are not always known (servers are only known for article number and message-id group types, but these are memory greedy types).

in principle it is possible to introduce more compact binary types but i'm not sure when i would have time to do that (there are also some problems there, e.g. when you delete server which is attached to such a newsgroup the program would need to rebuild the content once since otherwise it might be some kind of mess if you add another server.
