I read news with Gnus under Emacs. By default, it checks for new
newsgroups by issuing a "NEWGROUPS" command. In the last several weeks,
it has not found any new groups.
When I switched it over to reading the entire active file, it found five
new groups.
I obviously don't want my newsreader pulling the active file every time
I connect. It's slow and it wastes bandwidth.
Who might I talk to so Verizon's news admin can look into supporting
this important feature?
