} itself has almost the same number of entries in it). I assume that there
} is a problem with this old version of findmissing? Is there a newer
} version of this program?

findmissing.pl can be useful for traditional spool like
inn1.* or inn2.[0-2](utilize tradspool).  2.3.* and later
version of inn, recorded data written in history is
different from older one.  So it's useless for newer
version.

} Also, in older versions of in one could run expireover with the -a and -s
} parameters to make it add missing entries to the overview and to delete
} overview entries that no longer had any corresponding spool file. Is this
} capability now lost, or do we need a third-party tool of some kind to do
} this kind of cleanup?

Also older expireover assumes the style of storing articles.
2.3.* and later, there are some methods to store articles
and overview data, and expireover now cannot recreate
overview data.  Use makehistory instead.  See makehistory(8)
for more.
