Hi,

The most flexible method is to use rule-based filtering include in DNews
5.2b2 and later.

http://www.netwinsite.com/dnews/rules.htm

You should be able to do something like this -

=========================================

if(size()>50000) then
    if(isin("newsgroups","desired.binary.group.name")) then
        if(size()>250000) reject "Too big"
    else
        reject "Too big"
    end if
end if

accept "OK"

=========================================

There are also functions such as isbinary() you may like to use to block
binaries from groups rather than relying on size.
