Hello, After some tips I received on this list, I recently added my own e-mail adress to the global KILL file, set the environment variables to point to that KILL fil, and also added the '-f' option to the list of parameters which are passed to trn. However, I have now run into a new problem with this: when re-entering a newsgroup trn seems to be applying the global KILL file to this group, but it never stops: 6 more articles have arrived -- processing memorized commands... /vervoorn@NOSPAM.home.nl/f:T. But after it's done that, it rechecks the group, finds some more new articles and prints out: 14 more articles have arrived -- processing memorized commands... /vervoorn@NOSPAM.home.nl/f:T. And it never leaves this loop, because new articles have arrived by the time it has finished applying the options. Even Ctrl-C doesn't help, I can only stop this by killing trn (Ctrl-\). Any ideas on this list on how to fix this? Best regards, Patrick. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com
