part two --delete Roff

just realized that when I delete one news group all other news groups are
also deleted-----after nine years of using this thing I still learn
something every day.

Just think of all the wonderful salmagundi that I have wasted.

Any suggestions of a method of deleting all Roff mess without wiping out
other newsgroups? I use AT&T world

thanks for all the suggestions--I will try to understand them tomorrow PM
( got to college in AM-just like OPIE}
but think I need to explain what I'm doing now---
read messages on a newsgroup- roff- bass fishing etc--then want to delete so
I hit
Tools-Options-Maintenance-clean up now-delete-yes-close- ok
Is there another way to delete all read messages on a newsgroup? The
problem ( I have just realized } is that this method deletes all other
unread newsgroups.

Please realize that when you send suggestions for better methods you are
writing to an old indian who never was even any good at starting the fire
under the blanket ! Keep it simple- thanks
again Joe
