Show Message rate limited if HTTP 429
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No problem just to prevent new issues like #857 being generated.
Describe the solution you'd like If WebToEpub receives HTTP 429 it shouldn't just stop. Show an Error message: "Server limits your request speed and blocked the request. More Information: #857 Solution: Advanced Options -> lower Max web pages to fetch simultaneously and/ or Advanced Options -> increase Manulual Throttle|Delay per Chapter"
@gamebeaker Actually, WebToEpub doesn't "just stop". WebToEpub will recognize a 429 response, and will back off as requested. The problem in this case was the server requested a back off of one hour. So it looked like WebToEpub had stopped.
That said, maybe have a message/error text box show on the form for errors/warnings?
Something like "HTTP 429 received for URL XXXX, Server has requested WebToEpub to reduce request rate. Retrying. If fails, see: YYYYY" "HTTP 500 received for URL XXXX, Intermittent error at Server end. Retrying. If fails, see: YYYYY"
Or maybe a table?
@gamebeaker Thanks. Updated pretty much as you suggested. Everything else was too much work.

For my notes: 39 minutes work
