cannot restore newsgroup after reseting

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I had some messages lost in a ng, and decided to reset it with maintenance
cleanup / reset. I cannot redownload the headers or whole messages in this
group. Also a message posted to this group does not show up.

I have tried deleting the dbx file also. Tried closing and restarting OE. I
know the messages are there as Xnews downloads the headers each time it is
opened.

any suggestions appreciated. I hope I don't have to delete and reinstall the
newsserver. That's the only thing I haven't tried.
