You can use the -q option, either from the command line or in your
.trninit file. If -q isn't what you want, always type 'N' at the
new-group prompt and trn will skip them all.

See also the AUTOUNSUBSCRIBE environment variable. There's a companion
AUTOSUBSCRIBE function too.  For example, to automatically unsubscribe
all NEW alt groups, use ^alt.*.  More dramatic, to unsubscribe to
everything BUT certain groups, use "*,!^local.*,!^comp.*", for example.
If you're REALLY tired of them, use -q to tell trn to not even check for
new groups at all.
