Your SA can put an entry in your machine's sys file to have comp.sources.amiga and comp.binaries.amiga postings mailed to you automatically. This won't help you if some site upstream is filtering out those groups, but would help during those ``business trips''. Of course, if your SA doesn't want to ``waste'' disk space on those groups already, he might not be receptive to the idea of having it linger in your mailbox, either... Just an idea... ...tad
