Question about newsgroup message filters

2012-09-21 Thread chicagofan
I am still using SM 2.8. Is there a file for message *filters* by newsgroup, that could be copied to another news server? If so, could someone tell me it's location and the process? If I knew the locations, would it just be a cut and paste operation?:) TIA. bj

chicagofan: Is there a file identified as the filters, or do you have to copy everything that is in .dat? Each newsgroup has its own filters in a file with the suffix dat. For example the filters for de.test are contained in the file de.test.dat. Hartmut

chicagofan: P.S. - Keep a watch out for another plea for me so far I can't find the right files. I'm new to Win 7 and absolutely detest it!!! I can't find *anything* any more. I want my XP back!!! ;) I found a profile file 8 levels deep... but it's not what I am looking for.
