Hm, I=C2=B4ve read a post saying that you could set newsgroups to a higher level for them not to be included when checking for new messages. I tried that, found that it didn=C2=B4t work and learned that the levels are also used to distinguish between unsubscribed and zomie groups. So I decided to better not play with group levels until I know better what I=C2=B4m doing. Unfortunately, I don=C2=B4t know yet how to make a customized function like that ... There=C2=B4s so much to learn when you start using gnus that it=C2= =B4ll take a while.
