Hello Ted,

I have de-Agentized the news server by doing '^' in group buffer, and
then in the server buffer 'J r' to remove the server from the agent.

Then back to the group buffer and 'g' to refresh does not get any more
news for the problematic groups.

*However*, I tried M-x gnus-fetch-group on fr.comp.text.tex and it got
me all the missing news up to today but with the 'O' (old) mark. That is
strange because I had never read them... So I all unmarked them with
some 'C-u 1000 M-u', anywaythat seems to confirm that there is something
like a time stamp issue with this server and/or my machine and/or
gnus...

For your information, before the de-agentization, 'M-x gnus-fetch-group'
had no effect.

   Vincent.

PS: By the way, can you set the Agent on a group by group basis, it
seems that it is set on a server by server basis...
