Subject: limit agent downloads

I should know how to do this but didn't see how in the manual.

I have an agent category of `true' where I put groups I want to
download all messages.  But really I want to download all from
some semi-recent time.

For example:  If the group is on gmane for long it will have a serious
number of message in it, maybe 50,000 or so.  I want to download only
since I got interested in whatever.  Say starting Dec 1 2005.

But if I've entered the group in category `true' and run an
agent-fetch on that group it will try to download the whole spool on
gmane for that group. 

What do I need to do to get stuff downloaded since Dec 1 2005 only?
