[news.misc] how to obtain older, but unexpired news

toml@rob.UUCP ( Tom Luteran ) (11/11/88)

     Would someone please tell me how to receive current, unexpired
     news?  I am a new admin and have just received my feed, but I
     would like to get the news from the last week or so.  I've received
     all of today's news, but can't figure out how to get the unexpired
     news for the last week or so from my feed.

     Please mail directly to me to avoid boring others.
     Thanks in advance!

     Not boring!  I would like to know this as well.  I have a differnet problem
that I filled the WREN-II 70Meg drive I have dedicated to the news feed last
week and lost a nights feed!  Only happens once in a blue moon but I don't
know how to recover.

     Also Thanks from here.
