This may be a silly question but I have to ask it. I currently
only receive a limited news feeds (just over 390 odd groups) and
am about to take a full news feeds from my hub (2200 groups).
 
Do I have to complete EVERY entry into my /waffle/usenet file or
is there a way to auto creat newsgroups as I can not see any way
from the docs to this I thought I would ask.
 
I had hoped a usenet file like this would work
 
 alt
 biz.
 clari.
 comp.
 nz.
 ny.
 nj.
 aus.
 etc etc etc etc would work but it did not from the tests I have
 tried here. Any thoughts out there ?
 
 Has anyone done the task with 2200 odd news.groups in their usenet
 file? if so how about .zipping it up and uue'ing to me (grin).
