I'm sorry, I think I may have phrased my question poorly -- what I meant
was that some of the groups now show up as containing, say, 100
messages, instead of the 1000 they used to have. All the groups
themselves still show up, it's just that they have fewer messages than
before. Should I still try upgrading/fetchnews -f?

Thanks...

It makes me mad when I go to all the trouble of having Martha cook up
about a hundred drumsticks, the the guy at the Marineland says, "You can't
throw chicken to the dolphins. They eat fish." Sure they eat fish, if
that's all you give them. Man, wise up.
