For some reason, my .newsrc seems to think that some of my subscribed newsgroups have article numbers far beyond the new news server's. Even if I rip out the .newsrc, .newsrc.eld and .newsrc.eld~, when I launch Gnus it regenerates a .newsrc with the same problem. I've already generated a new .newsrc by wading through thousands of newsgroups and manually subscribing to the hundred or so I'm interested in, and it worked the first time...then, the next morning, some very active newsgroups had no traffic at all overnight, and the .newsrc was back with the old .newsrc's range of article numbers. Is there any way of keeping this from happening? (news.twtelecom.net is also aliased as news.io.com now, and I've configured the nntp to both of them - not at the same time, of course - and the same results occur no matter which one I point it at. Unfortunately, PrismNet's tech support doesn't seem to have many around who deal with Gnus. I'm running Gnus 5.10.8 under xemacs 21.4.20.) -- Patrick "The Chief Instigator" Humphrey (patrick@io.com) Houston, Texas chiefinstigator.us.tt/aeros.php (TCI's 2007-08 Houston Aeros) AA#2273 LAST GAME: Houston 1, Hartford 0 (March 7) NEXT GAME: Sunday, March 9 vs. Rochester, 4:05
