It seems I already have those two set this way. Do I need to do some kind of saving of messages? For example, these are default settings:

mark_saved_read=OFF
process_only_unread=OFF
kill_level=0
batch_save=ON
interactive_mailer=0
cache_overview_files=OFF

These were a few that were confusing to me.

At the moment, if a group has multiple new articles (or just one), it only downloads the latest new article for each group, and doesn't seem to store them anywhere (not saving?). My "Mail" and "News" directories are empty, always.

Regards,
Nick
