Newsgroup Properties

This window allows you to modify settings for a specific newsgroup.


Search - A search string that applies only to this newsgroup.  Any article whose subject matches this rule will be downloaded unless a filter rule blocks it.  See Search Strings for further information.


Filter - A filter rule that applies only to this newsgroup.  Articles whose subject matches this rule will NOT be downloaded even if a search string matches.  See Search Strings for further information.


Folder - The folder where Binary Boy should store downloaded files from this newsgroup.  Leave this blank to use the list folder or the folder from the main settings.  Click the browse button to find a folder.  This field can accept predefined variables for special folders.


Next Article - Binary Boy remembers the newest article number you've read or downloaded in each newsgroup.  Set this value to 0 to make all articles in the newsgroups new again.  To reset multiple newsgroups, right-click in the group list editor.
