Try one of those:

,----[ fetchnews(8) ]
|  -n     Don't unlink files in the interesting.groups direc­
|         tory. This avoids automatic unsubscription of news­
|         groups.
`----

,----[ /etc/leafnode/config ]
| ## timeout_long determines how many days fetch will wait before not
| ## getting an unread newsgroup any more. The default is seven days.
| timeout_long = 36500
`----

Are 100 years long enough? ;-)
