> I am trying to join two existing newsgroups together.  I must keep the
existing threads.  I also want to create a new name for the group.  I am a
beginner...please help me out.  Thanks!

Hi,

First create the new group -
    tellnews newgroup new.group.name y

Then copy the items from the old groups -
    tellnews copy_group group.name.from1 new.group.name
    tellnews copy_group group.name.from2 new.group.name

Finally, remove the original groups once you have checked messages have
copied correctly using -

    tellnews rmgroup group.name.from1
    tellnews rmgroup group.name.from2
