Option to "Retry" or "Resubmit"

I would suggest there are many users out there who use multiple bin servers; some of which are PAYG.

I run Astra+Giga, mainly because if one doesn't have enough blocks the other usually makes up the difference - recent I let Giga fall to an inactive membership and all of a sudden I have a "Completed" queue full of failed downloads.

So, you know that right-hand icon in the Completed queue that allows you to deleted the NZB and/or content? Well can you put a "re-submit" option there so one could first re-establish the other bin server account and then easily restart the download process of the failed NZBs. SABnzb would then do a "Forced" search, and poll all server for missing blocks.

Does that sound doable?

(Will contribute, again).

Just too difficult to implement, it would require a huge bookkeeping.
The main reason is that the article sizes in the NZB are not the actual data sizes.
Inserting missing blocks later would be a problem.
If the article size was known we could write fillers for missing articles and later patch them up.
I understand the usefulness of such a feature, but it requires too much work.
