That's weird, I was thinking it's the exact _opposite_.

that I need only the upper-level groups, that the lower-level
groups will be included...)

Suz, Todd, which way is correct?

(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

(...) Todd and/or Suz, If this is so --(Is it?)-- then I'd like to have a feature added to the email subscriptions page, whereby I can _choose_ to subscribe to a group _and_ all of its subgroups as one digest... Please? Thanks, Franklin (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
