It's limited to 128 characters (which is what the original scripts default settings are), and, like yourself I found it too small.

Run the following sql query and you can have up to 64000 characters (give or take!)

PHP Code:

ALTER TABLE `nntp_settings` CHANGE `value` `value` MEDIUMTEXT DEFAULT NULL  ; 


It's possible that in future upgrades of gateway.php the script may revert back to the original settings (as it auto-installs), so if there are any future gateway updates that you install you will have to run this query again after installing (and keep a copy of what's in the killfile beforehand as this may be erased).
