I have just upgraded to Newsbase 0.54m, and as a result, I have lost a
lot of usenet postings that I was keeping!

If you upgrade, check the expiry times on your newgroups. I had one
newgroups set to never expire, but the upgrade lost this information,
and reset the expiry to the default value.

When Newbase started running the expiry, it deleted 99% of all the
posting in that newgroup, including a couple of *very* important
postings.

Also, Newbase keep resubscribing me to my outgoing mail / news groups,
which is very annoying.
