Well... I had the machine turned off for two days and now it's obliging
me by downloading all article bodies for all newsgroups. I'd still like
to know how this behavior I've seen it possible...
Also, I've noticed some articles that I've seen are gone, and some are
not. I have the cache set to 1g, and it's not nearly full.
Also, on some of the newsgroups, Pan automatically marks them all as
having been seen as soon as I open that newsgroup. Others get marked as
seen only when I actually click on an article. I've never touched any
settings that Pan might have regarding automatically setting articles as
seen...
I'm just a bit baffled by Pan, it seems to be sort of on autopilot as
far as how it behaves.

It's shouldn't be a cache issue, I have it set to something like 1g.
Also, you're not envisioning the behavior correctly. No articles are
dissapearing, I still have the first ones I picked up with Pan. It's
just that some newsgroups only get headers, others get bodies too. I
want them all to get all of the bodies.

Are you sure this is not a cache size issue? Right now it sounds like
the articles downloaded first are being pushed out of the cache by later
articles. You could try doubling the size of pans cache.
