There are no setting like too_old in dnews.conf....must this be there ?

Yes, and should be set to about 10, so add that setting to dnews.conf.

If the problem persists you should  be getting an error in dnews.log
like this:

....item: Invalid date or too old={DATE shown here} <xxxx>

If you can find that, send that to us.

Time and date are correct but the msg-ID is very long (? VPOP31.4.1....)
