Hello to all.
I recently have encountered a strange problem when I attempt to import
articles from a particular newsgroup (comp.unix.msdos). I am running
Yarn95 (0.92) and Souper 1.6, b1 (souper95.exe).
The other day, I added the newsgroup to my .newsrc. Since then, when I
run my Souper BAT file to import/export mail/news, I have been unable
to import anything from comp.unix.msdos, despite the fact that Souper
lists 1 unread article in that group. When I have checked the
newsgroup, using trn via my shell account, there are no unread articles
in that newsgroup. Here is a portion of the output from a recent
Souper session:
souper: 1 unread article in comp.unix.msdos
souper: 16 unread articles in news.admin.net-abuse.misc

As one can see, that one unread article in comp.unix.msdos is not
imported. This is real puzzling to me. Does anyone have any ideas
about this?
Thanks in advance.
