Hello friends, For now I just have a wrapper function that I have binded to RET in gnus-group-mode-map: (defun site/gnus-group-select-group () (interactive) (gnus-group-select-group 100)) to fetch only the newest 100 messages from a group. I have dug into the manuals for a little bit but I have not found such a variable that would let me set the default number of articles to fetch. --- Chen Zhaoyang

Hi, as I read from the documentation of gnus-group-select-group, there
is no default number of articles to display.
I think yours is a very good solution to the problem.

You can do this with either per-group group parameters, or for all
groups using the `gnus-parameters' variable, via the `display'
parameter. See (info "(gnus) Group Parameters")
