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. kai -- Abort this operation? [Abort] [Cancel]
