Does it accept the newsgroup lists in the format that they are being sent out in (i.e. some newsgroups indented, some having descriptions on more than one line)? I have a cobbled together version that works off a list I built based on the format in the 2.10.2 distribution, but it sure would be nice if I could just plop in the newsgroup list each time it comes out without massive amounts of editing. I can handle deleting a preable, but line by line editing of each newsgroup would be too much. Does anyone know if checkgroups will read that format? -- eric ...!seismo!umcp-cs!aplvax!milo!eric
