I use nnmail-expiry-target to send some things to nnfolder groups for archival. Those files are appended to in memory and saved when gnus quits. They are not saved when I hit "s" in *Group*. (Problem 1.) If Emacs should crash before I quit Gnus, Gnus uses the last-saved version of the file, and loses anything which had been modified in the autosave.=20=20 Given Gnus' ability to handle other unsaved files (like newsrc) it would be nice if it would handle these, but it would also be nice if it would save them when I hit s. --=20 Alan Shutko - In a variety of flavors!
