Or you can use C-u RET to enter the group to see all articles right
away.  You can also use group parameters in ~/.gnus like:


	("mail\\.0-incoming"
	 (gnus-show-threads nil)
	 (gnus-use-scoring nil)
	 (gnus-article-sort-functions '((not gnus-article-sort-by-date)))
	 (display . [not expire])
	 (gcc-self . "mail.sent")
	 (gnus-summary-line-format
	  ":%U%R%z%I(%5k) %(%[%-23,23f%]%) %11&user-date; '%s\n"))


"(display . [not expire] )" displays all articles except expired ones.
