Just to clarify, I use `M-g' in the Group buffer, but looking at the code I think using it in the Summary buffer does the same thing. Aside: While looking at the code, I think I noticed an error in the doc string of the function that ends up getting called: (defun gnus-group-get-new-news-this-group (&optional n dont-scan) "Check for newly arrived news in the current group (and the N-1 next groups). The difference between N and the number of newsgroup checked is returned. If N is negative, this group and the N-1 previous groups will be checked. If DONT-SCAN is non-nil, scan non-activated groups as well." I think the description of DONT-SCAN is inverted (as its name suggests). It should say: If DONT-SCAN is nil, scan non-activated groups as well. Or If DONT-SCAN is non-nil, then non-activated groups are not scanned. Dan
