2.1.0 no longer creates newsgroup folders

I can't find the switch to do this, at least I thought I had it enabled in switches but could be wrong, as of upgrade to 2.1.0 all downloads are created in folders named for the download in the completed folder rather than in each newsgroup's folder, if you know what I am talking about?? Anyway where can I re-enable this function, so I know which newsgroup the downloads originated in? thanks

This function was removed because I did not see the need for this anymore, in the days of NZB's, is it important which groups jobs come from?

It is to me :), in many cases I have found it necessary to search the actual newsgroup for files and/or other uploads if the nzb has been removed.

Hmm, I think you will need to start using a post-processing script.

The script gets the newsgroup and you can then use it to move the files to whatever directory you like :)

I know it's not optimal for your case, but to the general public this function is not needed anymore for many years.
