## Version 1.1 ## Update history: ## Nov 1998, Made all default rules for major groups 'log' as to many spammers ## are abusing this system, use pgp if you want to ## have a reliable control.conf system (see below) ## Nov 1998, Added version numbering :-) ## Oct 1998, Minor additions/changes. ## ## JUne 1997 - Additions from PGPKEYS file. ## to enable pgp, FIRST install pgp, then ## change "doit", to "doit,pgp" for all of the following entries ## see http://netwinsite.com/dnews/pgp.htm ## ## You do not need to change this file (probably), it is setup add and ## remove groups automatically if the messages come from approved sources. ## ## When you get swamped with email about news group creations, then try and ## add records to this file to drop or doit messages from those sources ## ## Format: ## ::: ## The last match found is used. ## Control message or "*" if it applies ## to all control messages. ## Pattern that must match the From line. ## Pattern that must match the newsgroup being ## Comma separated, don't use | as in old versions ## newgroup'd or rmgroup'd (ignored for other messages). ## What to do: ## doit Perform action and log it ## doit,mail Perform action and mail it ## doit,pgp Perform action if PGP signature matches ## mail Send mail to admin and log it ## log Log it but do nothing ## drop Ignore message, don't even log it ## pgp: See the html manual for instructions, you must install ## PGP before this option will work. ## All control messages are logged to 'control_(message).(action)' ## Blanks are not allowed, e.g. :: would be misinterpreted. ##
