Something similar here - using Xnews and Astraweb. Do a refresh and Xnews
appears to download new headers - but nothing appears and the headers
listing just stops as of 29th June ... whereas last week headers were
showing up to the then current date. Haven't been able to find any
inadvertent "don't show" settings. Highspeed and British are working
normally - problem just seems to be with absr.bbc
