I have some problems, which I can summary "every feed send everything"
regardless what is in "groups" statement

The goal : I have two full feeds for the whole fr.* hierarchy, and I suck
elsewhere a dozen of comp* groups, when users ask for them.

Extreact from my newsfeed.conf :

| site me
|       groups fr.*,comp.*,control*
|       maxcross 8
|       rules   /usr/local/dnews/filter.rul
| 
| site fullfeed1
|       type dfeed
|       groups fr.*
| 
| site fullfeed2
|       type dfeed
|       groups fr.*
| 
| site $nntp_feeder 
|       groups comp.one.group,\
|               comp.some.other.group
|       builtin 
|       exclude fullfeed1,fullfeed2

 (Note : The sucking feed is news.free.fr, aka nnrp2.proxad.net)

It is supposed to do exactly what I want.

But, I found the sucking feed refeeding *old articles* to the fr.*
hierarchy.

I checked for cachedall false in dnews.conf, it is here.

But, while the group fr.comp.lang.perl actually appears being cached (*) it does not 
explain why Dnews fetche groups from $nntp_feeder that doesn't match its "groups" 
statement. 

(*) I suppose I have to add "cache_onxover false", "cache_ongroup false" and 
"suck_maxgroups 0" to dnews.conf

Thanks for your help,
