When requesting articles from news servers NZBGet retries three times. The extra attempts are made to cope with badly behaving news servers that may return an error code on first attempt and then a success on a second or third attempt.
This code was OK years ago but nowadays it makes more harm than good. For DMCA'ed articles that means that each article is requested three times effectively tripling the time needed for an unhealthy download to fail.
In this issue: remove extra retries and request each article only once.
Note: these three attempts are not related to option ArticleRetries, which controls attempts for download errors or crc errors but not for response codes on article requests.
