Hi there :)
Sorry it's not my area of expertise to set that software up and I'm unsure how it would integrate into this gateway binary... that said I have attempted to add some newsgroups from some of the more busy political areas in Usenet to the gateway filter. This is in an attempt to try and reduce gating posts that have been crossed posted into this newsgroup but that also contain x-post references of the aforementioned political newsgroups.
I can't say it will be 100% but I can try :)
Best, Paul
