I'm getting this error on 6.41B4:

[16:24:08] ERROR - Server:<server>Server Reports bogus MaxSpool > MaxGroup Numbers :368838354:2735137387 - <group name>

I get loads of these on various groups.

Might set your download age to say 5 then right click these groups and "Post Storage/Use Download Age" to reset the group. Then when you download headers again, it'll pull the last 5 days worth of headers.

Basically what the mesage is telling you is that what Newsbin thinks the group state is, doesn't match what the server is telling Newsbin.

Thanks Quade.

Just had this issue myself and seems as tho this has fixed it.

I always think the worst and thought my ISP had throttled me, even though I'm connecting via Newshosting thought they migh have throttled the port. Anyhow this wasn't the case so thanks again

Newshosting and Highwinds in general have announced that they now have full header retention. I'm guessing they've renumbered all the groups and that's why this fix is needed.
