Since I had set Newbase to *NEVER* expire that newsgroup, I saw no point
in locking / filing the articles. Newbase 0.53 managed quite well
without losing a single message.
The problem was that Newbase 0.54 lost the expiry setting.
Given how slow Newbase 0.54 is, I think I'm going to try to re-install
newbase 0.53, until a much improved version is released.
