Here's my favorite nn pet peeve/feature request: I'd like crossposts to be displayed in the first group which appears in my init sequence. From what I can tell, they are currently displayed in the first group on the Newsgroups: line. The problem is that there are lots of groups I don't want to unsubscribe to, but also get to only once a week or so. It would be nice for crosspostings sent first to those groups to instead appear in the first group in the sequence that I read. Alternative, kill based on the Newsgroups: line would be a distant, but still ok, second choice. --John -------------------------------------------------------------------------- John L.

If you have version 6.3.7 or later, you can just say set cross-filter-seq in your init file (it is short for CROSS-post FILTERing on SEQuence). This will be the default setting in 6.4. -- Kim F.

So good, in fact, that Kim has already thought of it and has implemented it in his latest source. -- Wayne Davison \ /| / /| \/ /| /(_) davison%drivax@uts.amdahl.com davison@drivax.UUCP (_)/ |/ /\| / / |/ \ ...!amdahl!drivax!davison
