Could someone please help me, or explain how sn expires news articles, and how to stop it from expiring them so quickly. Also if i at all possible, bring back the articles that have expired (they are still on the server if you cat through the articles in the news spool) If the articles are still in the spool, they are by definition not expired since sn deletes articles when expiring. So, I'd say that you should ask the providers of your news reader for assistance instead, since you seem to be having a client problem, not a server problem. - Patrik (currently on holiday) -- Patrik Rådman · patrik at iki dot fi · http://www.iki.fi/patrik/ "Now, where was I?"
