Unless I misunderstand news-by-mail, you only get messages
for groups you specifically subscribe to, not all the subgroups
under the specific groups.

That's weird, I was thinking it's the exact _opposite_.
(In fact, I've arranged my subscriptions based on this premise,
that I need only the upper-level groups, that the lower-level
groups will be included...)

Suz, Todd, which way is correct?

Thanks,
Franklin

(...) (not Suz or Todd, but...) Steve has the right of it. I'm e-mail subscribed to loc.ca, but I do not see any messages in any of the various loc.ca.foo groups. This is IMO, a good thing. thanks, James (22 years ago, 24-Jun-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Because 'lugnet.cad.dat' is retired, inactive, no-longer-in-existence. Unless I misunderstand news-by-mail, you only get messages for groups you specifically subscribe to, not all the subgroups under the specific groups. Steve (22 years ago, 24-Jun-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
