They appear to be in single files named "Incoming*" and not in an mbox file. I need them in an mbox file so that I can feed them to sp-learn. Sometimes gnus is really awful --- if I can't do this without creating unremovable groups and great fuss, perhaps it's time to use a different MUA. As much as I like gnus, it always has quirks like this which make life extremely difficult, and I really don't have time for this. You can't even have more than one account without messing everything up badly, and all sorts of deleted stuff remains forever :( --=20 Again we must be afraid of speaking of daemons for fear that daemons might swallow us.
