Excess Messages

[Anthony Human]

Hello,

I have been running INN on an old FreeBSD 6.0 server for a few 
years now. The server runs in standalone mode and only has one very low
activity group on it for one of the products that the company I work for
wrote. Recently I got a new server on which I installed FreeBSD 6.2 and
INN 2.4.3_3 out of the ports tree. I restored my backed up files from the
old server and updated the history as per the FAQ - http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/inn.html#S6.13

That was about a month ago and everything has been running smoothly
since then. Yesteryday the person who monitors the newsgroup informed me
that in Outlook Express it is reporting that there are in excess of
24000 messages on the server when in actual fact there are about 8100.

If you right click on the newsgroup in Outlook and look in the
properties it reports that there are 8100 odd messages, I can replicate
this on my desktop and am stumped as to what is causing it. 

Is there anywhere on the server that this would be generated or
something I can run to reconcile the reported number of messages with
the actual number?
Thanks
