Quick progress report - applied patch and I've got the sync in progress again; you've beaten the "duplicate" thing that cropped up and we're half way through the sync now.
Within fifteen or twenty minutes it should be up to the "attachment issue" post; I'll add observations to this post when it gets there.
Update - the "theproject" group is now syncing correctly! The post with the encoded attachment as body text (as you mentioned) finally came across properly,sync carried on normally afterwards without cycling, and I just made a test post which synced normally! Woohoo!
Next step - I'm now attempting to sync the next-largest group (about 1700 posts if I recall) to see how that goes. After that I'll try the biggest with 47,000 posts. More as it develops.
I guess this particular USENET server, with its peculiar ways, has been a real "torture test" for FUDForum - if you get this one synced solidly, it's going to be hard to break 
UPDATE: Unbelievable - still keeping my fingers crossed, but the FORSALE group is now coming across. I can't tell you what a relief this is to see after nearly a year of trying.
Thank you Frank!
