Thanks Connor.
I discovered that option looking at your website (now book marked) about an hour after posting, but my 'at work' news server doesn't carry this group (only useful stuff like es.charla.politica ??) so I rely on the very slow refreshes of google groups so I couldn't save anyone the bother of replying.
