You are obviously not on moderate to high volume mailing lists :). Of course, if you unmark all your ticked/dormant articles then catch up, those articles are ripe for expiry. About all I can say to that is, "don't do that." Maybe you have a good reason for it, but I generally do not see the rational behind unmarking an entire group. Then again, rsync is my friend. It should be your's, too. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v0.9.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE3dDrhgl+vIlSVSNkRAjuLAJ46EneF3Zia9sA1LEblQp0hZLEpmQCeLdUU yintvdvUqn6wBWZAJ3PCbLc= =tu1Y -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Rat \ If Happy Fun Ball begins to smoke, get Minion of Nathan - Nathan says Hi! \ away immediately.
