[Dialog] Get marked message bodies?



Can someone explain this to me? With Dialog, I can "mark for retrieval"
several messages in a text group and "get marked message bodies" will get
them all. In a binary group it won't do anything even if the marked
messages have no attachments. I've tried alt.binaries.sounds.1960s.mp3,
70s.mp3, etc.

It's not a real problem as I use my newsreader mostly for text, but I am
curious if this is a settings issue or a Dialog issue.
