It may be something to do with expiry processing, I can't fathom it out yet. My .overview files appear to have a number of partial header lines and the sequencing of article numbers, top to bottom, appears to have gone a little to pot. I may have compounded matters by attempting to sort out these files manually, but I'd be curious to know if anyone else has been seeing similar things? For the time being I've gone back to 5.6.10 - I'll see how it goes. -- Mike.
