- I highly agree with you. At the present I get about 200 postings per day for
- comp.os.linux, and I had to decrease the expire time down to 4 days in order
- to keep my spool disk from overflowing.
- Do you (or anybody else) have any idea of how to subdivide this group? I think
- we should at least create a group which covers all the newcomer questions and
- regular postings like the FAQ and the INFO SHEET.
