Being interested in discussions on Minix, and the Amiga, among other
subjects, I have set up 'kill' entries to select on those keywords in all
newsgroups.
	e.g.	:+s/:[Mm]inix
		:+s/:[Ss]ecur[ie]
		:+s/:[aA]miga

This has the side-effect of selecting articles in the newsgroups devoted to
those subjects (e.g. comp.os.minix), leading to too many selected articles
in those groups.

Is there a way of getting nn to select all articles with certain keywords in
the subject for all newsgroups except certain ones?  

Alternatively, is there a method for de-selecting articles already selected,
without actually killing them?
