Re-Importing a News Article

I keep a newsgroup for which my expiration-time is 31 days.
Today I received from my ISP an obviously truncated article
for that newsgroup.

I verified that the news server at my ISP has this problem.
Assuming they can "re-fetch" the complete article from their
source, I need to "make room" for re-importing that article
into Yarn. The 'simplest' way I can think of to do this is:

- Mark that article as "read"
- Mark all other articles in the newsgroup as "unread"
- Run 'expire -r' against that newsgroup
- Mark the articles in the newsgroup as "read"

Sounds kinda complicated.
