I see:


root@dur:~# article /var/spool/news/comp/os/linux/advocacy/94 contained 
illegal headers: non-printable characters in headers (relaxed check 
allows for iso-8859*)

when running fetchnews

but can't see anything in any of the log files about illegal headers.

There's no article 94 in /var/spool/news/comp/os/linux/advocacy/.overview


Clearly leafnode rejects the article because the header is bad, right?
