I am running News2 on an SE30 with system7.

When I open a news group and it asks for '200' or 'all'? I selected 200
and got nothing.The same thing on a ci with system6 crashed the machine.

It seems the best thing to do is select all (after increasing the apps memory).


This is a general problem when you have not read the news for a while and there
should be some way round it. Its a pity one cant edit the newsgroups
file and mark older letters as all read - you can with rn.
