I meant my personal settings.  But don't listen to me, a major glitch
in my mind has occurred.

Here's what I *really* do.  I think you will see it has no relation to
what I said I did!

I've got two categories, `default' and `kai'.  Both have a true
predicate.  There are no groups under the default category, and there
is one group under the kai category.  Which I don't think matters
anyway, because what I *really* do to control which groups are
downloaded and which aren't, is levels: I have set
gnus-agent-handle-level to 3, and I have set most of my newsgroups to
level 4.  Only a few select groups are at level 3, and all articles
from these groups are downloaded.  (The one group under the kai
category has level 4, so it isn't downloaded.)

I'm sure that what I'm doing is pretty stupid (I think I can delete
the `kai' category, no?), but amazingly it does the job for me.  I
want to download all articles in a few groups and no articles in most
groups.

Sorry for the misinformation.
