See my previous reply at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2008-November/063980.html>.

Your problem is the messages have been renumbered on the news server
and the most recent message on the server is now 42368, but the list's
wartermark is 339203 or almost 300000 messages higher.

You need to reset the list's watermark as I discuss in the above reply.
