I use the -K option to avoid trn fetching more news after I've entered a group: -K is used to keep a trn from checking for new news while you're in the group. Use this when your kill- file processing is so slow that you don't want the group to expand while you're reading. If you only want specific groups to be affected, put these lines into your kill file for the group(s): &-K X&+K Maybe that one helps.
