He he. Look at your article headers. This message has been Xposted
to 3 Newsgroups. So you would get them 3 times, one in EVERY group.

I don't know about NewsAgent, haven't used it since Oct 97, but if
you go to !Pluto >> Preferences >> News, you'll find (bottom RH 
corner) 'Crossposts'. Click on this and you'll have a choice:
- Don't Show
- Set Read
- Delete
- Leave 

Tick whatever turns you on ;-)
