Hello!

Is there a good way to hide the NoCeM list groups form the index?
Some crawler now index them...

The grouplist is populated by groups.txt files in your config, guided by menu.conf. It will not add groups in the spoolnews section:

if ($menuitem[0] == 'spoolnews') {
continue;
}

I keep all these types of groups (groups that don't need to be web
accessible) in 'spoolnews'. If you move it there, it should continue to
work for nocem, but expire from your grouplist after some hours.

What do I exactly need to move?

Just remove the group name from rocksolid/groups.txt and add it to spoolnews/groups.txt (in config directory). (I'm assuming you want to get news.lists.filters out of the grouplist)

Groups in <config_dir>/spoolnews/groups.txt should not appear in the
grouplist, but are still accessible by newsreader.

If you have edited <config_dir>/menu.conf and removed spoolnews, it should contain:

# spoolnews is an internal spool handler for all sections:
# and should almost always be 'spoolnews:0:1'
spoolnews:0:1

There must also be a symlinked spoolnews dir in your web dir, which is
created during install.

Thanks, that did the thing.
