Hi Chris,

sorry to hear that. For some reason, leafnode appears to be requesting
articles without specifying the Message-ID, and it also appears to be
related to the delaybody options.

Can you show me:

1. the delaybody-related options from your /etc/news/leafnode/config 
   file

2. the output from the command:
	ls -lba /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/

and perhaps

3. the output from these commands:
   cat -t /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg
   cat -t /var/spool/news/interesting.groups/rec.games.roguelike.angband

That might help chase down the problem.

Thanks.

Best regards
Matthias
