- Oops? Quoting `cn:man/relaynews.man':
-
- Articles which contain no locally-known (to the active
- file) newsgroups yet accepted by the local subscription
- list are filed exactly once, in the junk pseudo-group, and
- forwarded as usual. If all newsgroups in the article are
- refused by the local subscription list or are refused by
- an x in active file entries, then the article will be dis-
- carded and not filed in junk.
-
- Locally-generated articles need not be permitted by the
- local subscription list but are otherwise processed nor-
- mally; this is for backward compatibility and perhaps to
- keep the local subscription list short by not requiring
- general and the like to be named.
-
- In other words: given a valid entry in the active file, the `ME' line is
- not even consulted (according to the documentation; haven't checked this
- in the source yet) ...
