If you would like to force the faq-server@rtfm.mit.edu to post a FAQ asap then you are in the right place. Sending a FORCE request forces the posting with the specified Archive-name to be posted as soon as possible, usually that night.Things to consider:
- It is not possible to force a child article, and that forcing a parent will cause all of its children to be posted.
- After an article has been force-posted, the interval until the next posting of it is reset; for example, if you have an article with a 30-day interval, and you force it to be posted 15 days after the last time it was posted, the next time it will be posted after that will be 30 days after the forced posting, not 15.
- A FORCE command overrides a SUSPEND command, i.e., a FORCE command will cause a suspended posting to be RESUMEd and posted as soon as possible.
- Sending a FORCE command for an irregular posting (see the documentation for the ADD command, above) will cause the posting to be posted once and then suspended again.
