I'm not sure what gnus-activate-level has to do with servers? It is about groups. All of my nntp groups have a level greater than 2 and yet they appear in my server list (I have gnus-activate-level set to 2). If you are talking about the groups, you can view all groups, whether activated or not, using L (gnus-group-list-all-groups) in the *Group* buffer. Alternatively, you can activate groups at any level with "C-u N g" (replace N with desired level, e.g. 5). --=20 : Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D) in Emacs 24.0.90.1 + No Gnus v0.= 18
