Does Gnus (or Emacs, behind the scenes) support such a thing? Also, I have some large overview files in ~/News/overview, e.g. "nnimap.mail.lifelogs.com.ding.1047497850.novcache". Considering I don't use the Agent, do I need those overview files? They seem to be caching the gnus-newsgroup-data. Can I remove them and regenerate them later, either automatically or manually? Thanks Ted
