Any group in particular that is missing posts, or is it all?
For povray.general at least, posts seem to be there ...
telnet news.povray.org 119
group povray.general
211 54252 3332 83275 povray.general selected
Estimated 54,252 articles in total, first article 3332 and last is
83275. I'm able to retrieve both the first (from 1998) and the last
(from today).
However that's not to say I know what exact requests Thunderbird is
sending. If it happens again I suggest running tcpdump or wireshark on
your end when you do the fetch so you can see exactly what Thunderbird
is asking and what the server tells it in response. If you can send that
to me I can take a look at it.
