email. now to see if it captures some junk!

thanks Doug. Notepad is not on my pc. that's because of a virus going
around that utilized Notepad a few years back. Everyone at my company
removed Notepad at the request of the mucky mucks. Remember that virus?
I don't remember the name.
I'll see if I can find a copy of it.

doug, I'm lost with this nfilter thing. I downloaded and installed
it. it is version 1.20
I got your autoresponder message.
I don't understand this: # Your posts and any followups to them
will be DROPPED by this
filter file
# unless you make this setup change:
You missed the part right above that, which says
******* IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR MICROPLANET GRAVITY USERS *******
IOW, if you're not using MicroPlanet Gravity as your newsreader, this
doesn't apply to you.
[snip]
I don't see Server/properties/posting within the program I downloaded.
That's because those are settings in MicroPlanet Gravity, not
NewsProxy. I'll update the comments to make that clear.
and what am I to do with the rest of the data in the email?
(1) Save it as "nfilter.dat" in the directory where you installed
NewsProxy,
-OR-
when I click on Edit/Filter in the program nothing happens.
(2) Cut-and-paste it into the Notepad window that *should* open up
when you click on Edit | Filter.
how do I get the data from the email into the program?
Either (1) or (2) above.
