NNTP replication efficiency has been greatly improved in 5.0.3. In order to benefit from the improvements you must either create new NNTP accounts or replace the design of your existing NNTP accounts using the new nntpcl5.ntf template (included in 5.0.3). To replace the design of the NNTP account, follow these steps:
2. Select File->Database->Replace Design from the menu.
3. At the Replace Database Design dialog, check "Show Advanced Templates" option.
4. Select "News Articles (NNTP)" template from the list of templates and then click the "Replace" button.
5. Click "Yes" at the next dialog warning.
