Hi, The max_items setting goes in dnews.conf. It specifies how many items can be in a group (any group) at most rather than being configurable on a per-pile basis.
Simply add this to dnews.conf, and restart dnews for this setting to work. - Roydon L. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Newsgroups: netwin.dnews To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 12, 2002 1:14 AM Subject: max_items question > > I have a client testing DNews 5.5h2.
