Why SABnzbd Says "Out of Your Server's Retention"

If SABnzbd displays an "Out of your server's retention" message, it means the article is no longer available on the Newshosting network. This can happen when the article is older than the article retention period or has been removed by a server administrator.

How to Check Article Age

You can often see the article age within your Usenet Indexer or by hovering over the queue line in SABnzbd while the transfer is in progress.

What to Do Next

• Look for a newer version of the post

• Use a news provider with longer article retention if needed

• Test the same NZB with a different newsreader, such as NZBGet, to rule out SABnzbd-specific issues
