There's a fix to cater for the situation when a group's .agentview file doesn't exist or is empty following expiry. To see if this is your problem, try putting `((nnnn . t))', where `nnnn' is the number of the last downloaded header for the group, in the appropriate .agentview file, creating .agentview if it doesn't exist. -- Mike.
