“XHDR” is a common extension to the standard NNTP protocol which MT-NewsWatcher uses to communicate with news servers. MT-NewsWatcher requires this extension. All modern news servers implement this extension. Your news server must be very, very old indeed. The only solution is to nag your server administrator to upgrade to a modern server like INN. There’s just no way to make MT-NewsWatcher work without “XHDR”.
