GetBody is an overloaded Boolean function in TIdNNTP used to retrieve the message body for a NNTP article. GetBody calls SendCmd using the NNTP BODY command to retrieve body lines.

When TStrings is used as the destination, GetBody clears the contents of the message using TStrings.Clear and calls Capture using AMsg as an argument.
