After esmith sent me a missive wondering why the news server only
had the last few hundred articles, I spent some time tracking it
down.
It turns out that the news server has ALL the articles, but the
overview data limit was set to 512 articles per group and that
caused the newsgroup list to limit the article range.
I changed the limit to 100,000 and regenerated the overview files,
and poof, all the postings from day-1 are now available in the
news server.
