How do you do this? Thanks! If using the most recent release (v1.1 PL8) you can: 1. Use the auto-selection feature (^K) to mark articles that interest you. Read the section in the manual page for more details. 2. Use the '.' command to mark articles & threads as selected and than reduce the number of articles to the selected articles by the 'X' command.
