The first newsgroup listed, if you subscribe to it, will be the group the article appears in. Chances are, you are in a subsequent newsgroup. This way, you only see the article once. This is how it works on our system. This is only an observation, I don't know whether or not it's documented. ________________________________________________________________________________ * Do you really think that NASA agrees with everything I say???
