[news.admin] NEWS 2.11 B sys file ??question??

mml@srhqla.UUCP (Michael Levin) (04/13/88)

I would like to set up the 'sys' file for news so that all news for groups
'comp.mail...' and 'comp.sources...' are forwarded to another site, but that
'comp...' items which aren't for 'mail' or 'sources'.  I know that if I set
up 'comp.mail.uucp' as an explicit identification of a newsgroup, that works.
I know if I say 'comp', as an entire classification, that works.  I haven't
succeeded in getting a sub-classification such as 'comp.mail' to work.  Am I
doing something wrong, or is my patch-level 12 v2.11B news software not set up
to do this????  I have "R'd the FD", and couldn't find anything about this.

P.S.  If anybody has the patches from level 13 on, I would appreciate if you
could mail me a copy.
