### Version 1.5.10 (February 1, 2026)

#### Article Fetch Error Recovery
Fixed issue where a timeout fetching one article would cause all subsequent articles
and newsgroups to fail with "cannot read from timed out object".

Detailed error logging: Now logs error type (timeout, connection error, etc.) with newsgroup
context

Always update high water mark: Previously only updated when messages were fetched successfully.
Now always updates to `end_article` to skip problematic articles on retry

Failed article tracking: Logs which article numbers failed for diagnostics

Example log output:
```
ERROR - Timeout fetching article 1655389 from alt.usage.english: timed out
WARNING - Multiple connection errors, attempting reconnect to alt.usage.english
INFO - Reconnected successfully, continuing fetch from article 1655390
WARNING - Failed to fetch 1 article(s) from alt.usage.english: [1655389]
```
