Is this true for Bnews also?  I am running Bnews and have the following
entry in my sys file:

ME:world,na,usa,all,!alt.sex.pictures.all,!sci.all,!soc.culture.all,!comp.binaries.all,!comp.windows.all,!comp.parallel.all,!comp.realtime.all,!comp.graphics.all,to.skyking::

Should I change my .all's to /all's?

thx...
