i hope i'm uptodate on this:

,----
| #filterfile(5)		     Leafnode		    filterfile(5)
| #NAME
| #       filterfile - filter configuration file for fetchnews(8)
| #DESCRIPTION
| #       The filterfile stores a number of entries in the following
| #       format.
| #	      newsgroups = [wildmat]
| #	      pattern = [pattern to recognize]
| #	      action = kill|select|[score]
| Newsgroups = gmane.comp.security.crypto-gram
| maxage = 999999
| action = select
| 
| newsgroups = de.admin.net-abuse.mail
| maxcrosspost = 5
| action = kill
| maxage = 13
| action = kill
`----

the last entry could specify `newgroups = *' to provide a "catchall".
