Subject: (7.15) Why am I getting alt.sex.pictures even though I have "ME:!alt.sex.pictures" in my newsfeeds file?
The active file is the definitive list of what newsgroups you receive. INN's ME entry is different from C News and B News; please see newsfeeds.5. If you do not want to receive alt.sex.pictures, ask the system(s) that send you news not to send it to you. (You would have to do that no matter what news system you are running.) ------------------------------ [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.]
