With tradindexed, posting an article in a newsgroup with already 2^31-1 articles leads to the following error:
Jan 5 21:11:29 news innd[298375]: tradindexed: cannot write index record for 18446744071562067968 in /home/news/spool/overview/t/t/m/c/trigofacile.test.maxartnum.cnfs.IDX: Argument invalide
Article number seems to have wrapped to -1, and converted to 18446744071562067968 (unsigned) in the log.
Article 2147483648 has been written to disk, though. And the active file also updated with that 2147483648 number.
This should be fixed somehow. Perhaps by preventing the post earlier in the process, so that not to have to add a control in each overview method, and retest how they all behave.
