Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / October 2006Subscribing to a new group in MT-Newswatcher
What is the absolute simplest way to subscribe to a new group in MT-Newswatcher when you know exactly the name of the group you want, you are 99.9% sure it is available via your ISP and no one has yet cut off your mousing and typing hands? Please, simple means quickest, most elegant.

When your group appears, drag it to the list of your choice. Thanks all. I sort of knew this one (as it happens). Last time I subscribed to a group I was on dialup and am still in the dialup frame of mind, it took ages to build a full group list which may be needed. But on broadband, indeed, this is quick. I tried control click on the "myGroups" window hoping for an option to subscribe to a new group and a text box to type. This will serve as my wish number 987.

His posting history (previously as Tony W.) demonstrates he cannot seek advice without picking fights with his respondents.

I take advice from wherever I find it. I am easily led, I do whatever was said last. I can't help this. I am just a great fan of earthlings.

Select from Windows menu select "Show Full Group List" Start typing the name of the newsgroup in the search window when the group appears drag it to the window where your other newsgroups reside.

Using the Show Full Group List submenu, list the groups for the desired server. Find the group and drag it into an open newsgroup file for that server. If you don't have a newsgroup file for that server open, either open or create one first. SignatureSteve W. Jackson Montgomery, Alabama |
