That many would be unacceptable to me.

With a backup server added you're no longer totally nubular.

I don't like the subject line of that post, with the file number in (nnn/nnn) format followed by "yEnc" followed by the segment number. Maybe SABnzbd got confused by the subject line. The 6 malformed articles were caused by an old buggy version of JBinUp posting software.

Is the primary server in a "Readnews" farm?

Try this:

[x] Fail on yEnc CRC Errors

A poorly operating news server has been sending me a lot of badly formed yEnc articles intermittantly. In the article body the yEnc begins, gets truncated, and starts over with a second =ybegin string. So these badly formed articles have two =ybegin and one =yend. I noticed that one old newsreader (...

I really like how so much trouble is solved by just one reply from the Admin!

Clockwork has posted more info on another forum, and was trying to download a 2-day old upload. New posts take some time to propagate into completion on Giganews. By now, the post has filled in completely on all Giganews servers. The support email doesn't actally state that there was a takedown. If ...

Newsdemon doesn't have any articles at all for the post that includes [email protected]

All of the articles for that post were removed from Newsdemon by DMCA request of the content owner.

The name 'us.news.astraweb.com' resolves to IP addresses in two ranges, 207.246.207.* and 216.151.153.* If you have opened more than one connection to Astraweb, there could be both open and blocked connections. Is Peer Block blocking the other Astraweb range? A Whois Lookup on any Astraweb IP brings...

Your ISP service 'news.internode.on.net' is provided by Astraweb, not Giganews.

A Highwinds server would be a good backup for Astraweb, such as a block account from Newsgroupdirect.

Completion on Astraweb should be easier to troubleshoot. Bozrdang spent a week on this.

Astraweb 25 GB for $10 is the non-expiring block account to use as a backup server.

I wandered through the 609 day old pages on Matrix until I found a post that has 1782 hits, 10 comments, and is 57.05 GB. You won't be able to successfully download that post from Newshosting unless you have Astraweb as a backup server (cheap block suggested). The age of 609 days is beyond the reten...

I suggest adding a cheap Astraweb block account as a backup server.
Also free XSUsenet account as another backup server.

The same articles missing on 2 different companies servers doesn't necessarily mean a bad upload. The companies might be related, or even if not, they might have feed agreements so that one company's completion mirrors another's. Primary and backup servers have to be carefully selected by experience.
