Look in /usr/lib/leafnode/config.example:

## timeout_short determines how many days fetch gets a newsgroup which
## has been accidentally opened. The default is two days.
# timeout_short = 1

## timeout_long determines how many days fetch will wait before not
getting
## an unread newsgroup any more. The default is seven days.
# timeout_long = 6

This belongs to leafnode 1.9. Also think about fetch -n.
