Actually, I completely agree with this. I was just responding to the
suggestion to create lynx related newsgroup.
This is also another reason I don't like the idea of newsgroup that

one mailbox. With newsgroup, I would have to read lynx-v separately
and the newsgroup sparately, unless I start using gnus.
