It seems the easy answer (though it's a bit of a kludge) is just to invoke snget for a single group on each server. Choose a low-volume moderated group and the lack of filtering doesn't matter too much. SNHELLO then recogises that there are posts waiting to go, and sends them... ....then let the filtered download deal with the rest of the groups. -- ...Rick Hewett http://www.chocky.demon.co.uk/ Try holding your breath for as long as it takes your home page to load.
