Maybe one of the servers is secondary, and the other is foreign? > Does the .newsrc.eld file contain one of the servers? One appears in .newsrc.eld along with the n2m groups: ("n2m" nnml "n2m" (nnml-directory "/mnt/bak/n2m/") (nnml-active-file "/mnt/bak/n2m/active")))) > Please generate the NOV files and then copy and move around articles > to see if the NOV files are kept up to date.

If it > isn't: maybe a bug? After moving a few files around and seeing the nov files keep pace and another restart I now have a single n2m server in server buffer and all seems to be hunky dory.
