New to the Usenet Gateway and loving it BUT:
When picking up msgs from my news server, the Perl script shows it retrieving fine though the posts only show up in VB if I change the counter -1 msg or whatever.
At first I though it could be my news server being misconfigured but tried two others and the problem persisted.
Any chance of fixing this?
Any helpful hint is VERY welcome.
Thanks to all

I have no idea what you mean. What counter are you talking about? If you mean the 'last message number' then that has absolutely nothing to do with posts suddenly showing up in your forums. The message number is used for retrieving posts from the server and as you stated, that is working OK.
It is the message ID that determines when and if an article is posted to the forums. This ID is unique across all of Usenet and should never be tampered with.
