How can I configure UE to ONLY look at the 2GB newsserver when accessing certain newsgroups?
Thanks a bunch,

How do I do multiple newsservers, with different DL limits?

I have 2 newsservers, one which has an unlimited download capability, and one that has a 2GB/month download limit. Unfortunately the unlimited one is missing some groups the 2GB has.

in the workspace, the second "servers" pane expand the server, select newsgroups which you don't need and invoke "detach" from the context menu.
generally, if you add a new newsgroup all servers will be attached to it, so you need to detach it from the server after adding it if you don't need it.
another, maybe better way, or you can use it in addition to the above is to give higher preference to the unlimited server (in edit menu->proprties->servers), also check "strict", so it will always try unlimited server first, even if newsgroup is missing "no such article" errors won't take bandwidth if there is high enough number of tasks and the limited server can saturate the connection.
the latter option will also work with import groups like nzb/search.
