My junk directory is still being filled with these articles. I seem to have EXACTLY the same problem! Anybody know what the cause of it is and maybe how to fix it? I hadn't noticed it before until I wanted to turn off the 'rec' groups and I couldn't do it, at least where it wouldn't go into the 'junk' directory also. Any pointers, help, fixes, etc. would be appreciated. Thanks in advance! - David Summers (dws@cseg.uucp)
