ME can probably be more precise, but delete: all news related data files
(not the message areas themselves) and run elenews again.  Make backups.

* EleBBS Support List

I have noticed that I am not getting newsgroups in my messages any more, so
I checked my command statement, and ran the batch file in a DOS window.
This is what I got:

elenews -hnews.charter.net -m150 -s -p -c -t

ELENEWS; EleBBS Usenet retrieval utility, Version 0.10.rc1
         Copyright 1997-2002 Maarten Bekers, All rights reserved.

Active options:

	-Posting articles to newsgroups
	-Collecting articles from news.charter.net
	-Tossing articles into message base
	-Not retrieving list of newsgroups

Closing connection to news.charter.net
Tossing articles into message base (no articles to process)
Done

However, when I go to the newsgroups with my reader (Outlook Express), I
have no problems finding and reading the messages.

Anyone else having problems?  Ideas?  Suggestions??

Thanks....
