When testing, I found that the script can stop unexpectedly part way through. This seems to happen when there are more than a few thousand messages to read. When this happens, it doesn't write the counter of the last message it visited, so the next time you run it, it starts from the first message again.

Take a look in your data/errors/.nntp directory. If the script completed, it will contain a file with the prefix "news-" and the name of your newsgroup. If there's only a ".lock" file, then the script didn't finish.

If there's no non-lock file, then you can create one with a text editor. Put in a big enough number, and the scripts won't try to download everything again, just from that point on.
