Ok.

Right, they will be saved in .newsrc.eld, but won't necessarily be
synchronized...?

Out of curiosity: How do you decide which way the synchronization of
marks should go?  (ie. from gnus to the server, or update the gnus mark
based on what's on the server)

Do you use time-stamping?  If so: how fine-grained?
