for cities outside the US craigslist redirects away from the .org domain. e.g. vancouver.craigslist.ca - any way to configure this?

@jonpolak I was able to get it to work outside of the US. Without knowing what you have as your arguments, can't really see where you're going wrong.

what were the settings you used in your test? @WIRUT

@WIRUT are you using digitalocean as your cloud provider? I find craigslist super slow when I use my own vpn server hosted at digitalocean. Maybe they are limiting digitalocean connections since lots of scrapers host their bots there?

@jonpolak I was able to test it with Calgary as well as using Amazon's EC2 services. I didn't bother using digital ocean. I'm not sure which settings you want. I did set SITE = "Calgary", and I think I bypassed the area and just hardcode the AREA in for this test instance.

Amazon EC2 was nothing different either.
