In the case of Hannes, it appears that the symptoms were caused by
NNTPcache which is the server from which leafnode pulls its news.
When requesting message-ids with XHDR, NNTPcache missed a lot (most?)
of the articles that it claimed to have according to the GROUP command.
Consequently, fetchnews did not pull many articles from the upstream
server.
