View Full Version : The "downloaded messages" count is way off in OE now for this group?

Has anyone else noted this problem with this win98 newsgroup recently, where
you routinely check in to look at messages (as a subscribed newsgroup), and
it often says something like "14 not downloaded...", yet there really is
nothing to download at this point in time? (but if you've waited awhile,
you will see and get new messages, so that part still works, at least)

And even if you select "Catch Up", and come right back again, it says nearly
the same thing (with 14 messages, or 7, or 3, or <whatever number> of
messages "not downloaded")? (And "Get Next Headers" has no effect here,
either)

I even unsubscibed and resubscribed to this newsgroup and all that a couple
of times, and it still acts the same way.

I do NOT have this problem with the other newsgroups I'm subscribed to, only
this win98 one. Which is pretty weird.
