I still have this problem. Also with new articles. Does the
"article <messageID>" command use the overview at all?

When i retrieve an article by article number in that group and
after that i try to retrieve the article by the displayed messageID,
the connection is closed by nnrpd:

article <ugh3qugv2h2pmrp2mpsm0ntcf1vv2351qm at 4ax.com>
Connection closed by foreign host.

This is very strange. The other possibility is that a complete different
article will be displayed.

Some additional info about the messageID in the above example::

spool1:/usr/local/news/etc# /usr/local/news/bin/grephistory '<ugh3qugv2h2pmrp2mpsm0ntcf1vv2351qm at 4ax.com>'
@03056231333100000000000027F500000002@
spool1:/usr/local/news/etc# /usr/local/src/inn-2.3.3/contrib/showtoken
@03056231333100000000000027F500000002@
@03056231333100000000000027F500000002@ type=cnfs class=5 buffer=b131 offset=4fea00 cycnum=2

I'm wondering whether this is an overview problem.

Thanks for any help.
