I'm pretty sure you don't need to 'require' anything because of the magic of autoloading, and it works that way for me. > When the registry is initilalized, it tracks where all articles have > been filed?

In the worst case, you can always get just gnus-registry.el from CVS - it doesn't depend on anything and nothing depends on it. I think it will be a part of Gnus, though. Ted
