  • newslink error

    From Max@1:103/705 to Digital Man on Tue May 6 05:37:41 2025
    When I use newslink to download from usenet, when the *.sdt file becomes 2.1 GB, I don't get any more mail,
    but instead get an error when I download. Is there a 2GB limitation in smb or what is causing this?

    Yeah, 2GB is a limit:
