   yes, i'm interested.   
   At the same time, articles can be sent to a news server only if they're   
   newer than a few weeks. My news server stores data in a cyclic buffer so   
   every article is cancelled when each cycle ends.   
   At this point, if i import historical articles in the spool, they're   
   deleted after about 200 days because the spool ends its cycle.   
   I'm planning to setup a (smaller) news server for historical data but i've   
   no old USENET articles so i can't try
