More than once I have had to explain to netnews readers on my machine that saying 'options -n only the ones I want' prevents you from seeing new newsgroups that they were interested in. I personally don't have any options line (default subscriptions here are 'all') and have unsubscribed to the ones I don't care to read. Marsh Gosnell BTL Piscataway (201) 981-2758 npois!pyuxbb!mkg
