[OE 6.00] How to reload all headers?

My main news server (Usenet-News.net) has made changes that require headers to
be reloaded, otherwise the messages for existing headers won't be there and it
will give the appearance that there are no new messages (exactly the symptoms
I'm getting). I can do it by deleting the .dbx file for each newsgroup, but that
seems a bit desperate, and there are a lot of them, and there are similar .dbx
filenames for the same groups on other servers and I can't tell which is which.
Any suggestions?
