## Subscribing to a Newsgroup
|
|
|
|
Suppose you want to subscribe to newsgroup `comp.sys.pdp11`.
|
|
|
|
1) Add a new line to `/H1/DOCUMENTS/EMAIL/NEWSGROUPS.CFG` as follows: `alt.sys.pdp11 ASP11 0`
|
|
2) Run `EMAIL.SYSTEM` and using `N)ew` command to create mailbox `ASP11`, matching the line in `NEWSGROUPS.CFG`. You may use any name you choose.
|
|
3) Use the Closed Apple-R command to run `NNTP65.SYSTEM` and retreive messages from the newly-subscribed newsgroup.
|
|
|
|
When the 'last message' field of the newgroup is zero, `NNTP65.SYSTEM` will download the most recent 100 articles from the newsgroup. It will then set the most recent article counter in `NEWSGROUPS.CFG` so that subsequent runs will retrieve new messages only.
