The "ME" entry is a bit confusing.  Be careful when you
read the man page.

Here is the "ME" line that I use in my "newsfeeds" file.  I find
it works quite well, but you might want to remove the distributions
that you don't need (i.e. New Jersey).  Since my site has clients
reading from all over the world I try to have every distribution I
can find.  However, I hear of a new distribution almost daily so this
list is always changing.

ME:!*/\
news,gnu,comp,biz,alt,rec,misc,sci,soc,talk,inet,world,worldwide,all,\
aus,su,uk,york,eunet,na,can,qc,tor,us,usa,mn,oh,chi,ca,ba,tx,pnw,il,ne,\
ny,nyc,phl,bl,nj,warren::

If you want to blindly accept all distributions, try this:

ME:!*::
