In fact when you are subscribed (as I am), fetching/splitting/scoring/ filtering take many many time. At the opposite, consultation of a newsgroup group doesn't imply all this process. You don't have to fetch mails you wouldn't read and stuff like that. Sorry that doesn't answer to your questions. Regards, zeDek
