while nntp seems to be working properly for the most part, I routinely get numerous files in my /usr/spool/news directory named .inaxxxx and araxxxx where "xxxx" is some number. now I understand this is where articles are put that are to be processed, however, the number of articles stayes constant even when nntp is not transfering, and when nntp is transfering I can watch the count of files in the directory go up by 2 then back down by the same 2, i.e. the previous .ina and .ara files never get touched...
