Subject: (7.12) I'm getting groups sent to me that I don't want.
Tell the system administrator(s) of the machine(s) that feed news to you to stop sending those groups. There is no other way to do it. (In B or C News, the groups would end up in junk; at least with INN they are not taking up space. You should compile with WANT_JUNK set to DONT). If the people that feed you use B news or C news, remember that they don't use a "newsfeeds" file. They use a file called "sys" which has a completely different format for specifying newsgroups. ------------------------------ [Source: INN FAQ Part 7 Archive-name: usenet/software/inn-faq/part7] [Last Changed: $Date: 1997/09/16 01:25:57 $ $Revision: 2.25 $] [Copyright: 1997 Heiko Rupp, portions by Tom Limoncelli, Rich Salz, et al.]
