When I press 'L', it asks for the group in the prompt line. I giev * and
press enter. It gives all the newsgroups mentioned in
/var/spool/slrnpull/slrnpull.conf.
However my problem still remains regarding posting. When I post or
forward, it goes to out.going. But when I do slrnpull at command promt i
get the following lines even with one msg.
