You use 8 separate suppliers of Usenet groups?

Doesn't everybody? ;-)

Can I ask which ones you are using?

Sure you can and what is better, I will even answer you.
....snippity... (lists of servers, explanation of leafnode config, etc)

Leafnode is a newsserver that peers with all of them and downloads from
different servers and puts it all into one server.

Hmmm... I have no idea what's causing the problem you are seeing.

I know that when I get such issues it's usually the fault of the
nntp source I'm using. In your case maybe it's a bug in the
version of leafnode you're using (?). I don't use leafnode, I just
pull from the server with a client (which could be slrn of course).
