Hi nitram001,

Do the 20 posts that are displayed include posts made by yourself? If so, it
could be the View setting.

When viewing the newsgroup try the keyboard combination: Ctrl+H to toggle
the setting to display all posts rather than Show Replies to my Messages.

Or check the setting in OE View, Current View Show All Messages.

Hello - I have the problem that when using OE6 as my newsgroups reader some
data is not displayed. The left hand pane is fine, and this tells me that I
am subscribed to a given group and how many unread topics there are. In the
top right hand pane I get the list of those posts but it is a very short
list
- about 20 or so, not the 600 posts I should see. I have tried checking the
'get 'N' headers at a time' box and making N = 300 to no avail. The lower RH
pane display is fine. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.
