Strange issue: usenet threads disappearing after a while (but still on server)

Hi,

My preference is to use the threaded view in OE6.
It might be a wrong setting on user's side, or simply because I have not yet
fully understood the principle of "synchronising."

My default setting is "do not synchronise."

Once a thread does not get any new posts after awhile ( = all read), it
auto-disappears from the list!
However, it always works to reset all and redownload new headers.
Unfortunately, this happens with almost any usenet group and it is about to
get fairly annoying.
Note: the view is set to "Show all news", so this is not the culprit.

I mainly do "auto-synchronising", i. e. I simply click on the name of the
group and the headers are auto-downloaded.

Did anyone notice this behavior too?

-Andreas
