Only in indirect ways. It tends to be circular so you end up waiting on the
binaries anyway. you can set your main nntp_Feeder settings to only fetch
the non binaries, and add an nntp-suck2 to fetch the binaries only once a day.
But you will probably have to set limits so it doesn't fetch so much from
each binary
group, e.g.
suck_batchsize 5000000
That would make it skip to the next group after 5mb.
Also you could use the pull true settings so that the sucking of binary and
non binary
happened at the same time, see pull.htm in the manual.
