Wasn't sure if I should post this here or in the Astraweb area, but I'll post it here since I"m using 6.50B9: 00 CA A2 4D 35 A4 . On 4 newsgroups I getting the error message

ERROR Server:AstraEuHeadersServer Reports bogus MaxSpool > MaxGroup Numbers :115296:2417250 - <newsgroup name>.

The item in the download list is never removed and these errors just keep piling up until manually removed from the download list (a problem if your downloading headers unattended). I think it would be best if they were removed from the download list to avoid hammering the servers. And would you have any guess on what is causing it?

Win 7 pro SP 1 fully updated.

I just tried now and the problem has gone away. Must have been a glitch on Astra's end. But I still think that Newsbin shouldn't keep retrying forever if this happens.
