From Gnus' point of view the "via" indicates the back end method (nntp) and the "with" indicates the destination server. Perhaps the "with" should be changed to "to" and the "via" to "using": "sending news to localhost using nntp" Or, perhaps I should get a news feed set up so that I can stop mouthing off about methods that I don't use. :-) -IPmonger -- ------------------ IPmonger ipmonger@delamancha.org CCIE #8338
