It says "junk all articles without reading". Depending on the newsreader app and how those posts are being 'junked', getting rid of them from one newsgroup also gets rid of them from any cross-posted newsgroup as well. Similarly, reading a post in one newsgroup will remove it from the unread lists of other cros-posted newsgroups. Filters / killfiles will do the same, unless you've set it to be specific to a particular newsgroup. > Sure, by removing all the cross-posted groups, you can stop your post > and any replies to your post from being cross-posted from here to > kingdom-come.... but that doesn't stop anybody else replying to the > same posts as you but not removing all the cross-posts ... so their > post still gets posted into the other newsgroups. > > I would have thought you would have understood that!!
