Hi
Is there a way to limit the number of headers updatenews fetches for
each newsgroup, either a hard limit (eg 10000) or by date (eg no more
than 5 days old.) My news server has headers going back 7-8 or more
months, and so far updatenews has run almost 24 hours just fetching them!
Once this initial fetch is done, it should be fine...though it would be
nice to be able to set a limit
