What news server are you running?

Assuming INN.

For a normal peer-to-peer (IHAVE) connection, the articles should travel via the network (NNTP), not via files in in.coming.

For inserting articles from files in in.coming, see the (INN) rnews(1) manual page.

Normally, "rnews -U" ("${RNEWS} -U") is run from news.daily(8), just in case there is stuff there.

General:
While there may be News admins in this forum (I happen to be one), it is probably best to post your questions to the Usenet Newsgroup news.software.nntp. If you can not post with your server, you can use Google Groups (<>).
