Maybe it was this way before and I never noticed, but....
It appears that the file sizes of many of the binaries are not correct.

For example:
On many multipart or multipost messages, most file sizes (or parts) are,
let's say, 250kB, then one part will show as only being about 1k, yet
it has about the same contents as the other posts. I could give you
more specifics, but virtually all binaries groups (and maybe more) seem
to be affected.

Oh yeah....I also got this message several times while trying to connect
to Sonic.general:
"A News (NNTP) error occurred: nnrp1.nntp.sonic.net: Your host
connection limit reached - ***@sonic.net"

I have never seen this error message before when attempting to connect
to a sonic-only newsgroup.
