Right.  But then if I exit the group and enter it again, the article is
marked with 'O' (ancient) and it is not visible until I do, e.g., '/o'
as suggested before in this group.

I used to set gnus-mark-article-hook to nil to avoid previously read
articles to be marked with 'R'.  But then I ran into the problem I
described before: no distinction between unread and unseen after I exit
and enter the group.  

Is there any way to control which marks are seen by default?  Ticked
articles are seen, and if I could also state that ancient (and maybe
other) articles can be seen, that would do it for me.  BTW, I tried what
Wes Hardaker wrote in another thread: add to the topic the parameter

  (display .
	  [and
	   (not killed)
	   (not expire)])


(changing some things a bit because that one was giving me a syntax
error) but it didn't work.

Cheers,
