Not-So-Newbie

First a confession: I used Souper/Yarn for OS/2 for several months, but
when I moved things around on my drive, I couldn't get S/Y going again. I
finally erased everything in disgust and went for the gold (expensive):
Neologic News. Zillions of bells and whistles, tons of overhead, too
much!

So I'm back with my head hangin' in shame, hoping for some mercy.

One of the most valuable things I had in my kill file was a filter for
articles cross-posted to a bunch of groups. It was something like this:

all {
header *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*, *.*
}

But that doesn't work; it seems to kill everything.

Is there a FAQ somewhere on the Internet that goes beyond the doc files
that come with S/Y? They're not quite enough for me.

I enjoyed the use of YEP as a go-between for Yarn and Tiny Editor, but I
can't find it in hobbes or cdrom. Can you tell me where it is?

Finally (yes!), I don't think I've ever seen one of my own messages posted
to a group. I know some of them get out there, because I've had email
confirmation. But I'd like to see them myself to be sure. Is there a
switch or something so that I'll get them?
