The consensus seemed to be that something should be done about it, and there should be ways of saying: - delete this article from this group - delete this article from all groups Here, `delete' means after the expiry wait time, of course. For the moment, you can do two things: (1) Use total-expire and gnus-use-cross-reference. This means that articles will be removed from all groups when marked as read. Ticking an article means it will stay in that group, I think. (2) Else. This means that each copy is treated separately. kai -- This gubblick contains many nonsklarkish English flutzpahs, but the overall pluggandisp can be glorked from context. -- David Moser
