On my system, all my news is spooled in /usr/spool/news .  What I would like to
know, is if I remove a directory, for example, /usr/spool/news/comp/sys/amiga,
and then I receive news that night, would news automatically re-create the 
directory and put news there?

I ask because occasionally I have removed and recreated directories that were
getting large (sizes above 12000) and would rather just remove them and have
less work to do.

Thanks in advance for any help or assistance you give.

-Jo
