Hi there!

I've been using Gnus for some time now to read my mail, and I think
it's great. So I decided that it was time to try reading news with it
also, since that's what it's designed for after all.

So I modified my ~/.gnus file like this:


;; Set the default select-method to local mail.
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.stofanet.dk"))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-method '(nnml ""))
(setq gnus-group-split-default-catch-all-group "Inbox")

;; Archive sent messages
(setq gnus-message-archive-method
      '(nnml ""))
(setq gnus-message-archive-group "Sent")


Before I had '(nnml "") as my select-method. The new file worked
beautifully. I could read news and mail. But now after a couple of
weeks joy, I'm getting the error

Symbol's function definition is void: nntp-request-accept-article

every time I try to exit my Inbox. I've made a backtrace:


Signaling: (void-function nntp-request-accept-article)
  nntp-request-accept-article("Inbox-archive" "news.stofanet.dk" nil)
  gnus-request-accept-article("Inbox-archive" nil nil t)
  nnmail-expiry-target-group("Inbox-archive" "Inbox")
  nnml-request-expire-articles((11666 [...] 11814 11815 ... . ...))) "Inbox" "" nil)
  gnus-request-expire-articles((11666 [...] 11814 11815 ... . ...))) "nnml:Inbox")
  gnus-summary-expire-articles()
  run-hooks(gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  apply(run-hooks gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  gnus-run-hooks(gnus-summary-prepare-exit-hook)
  gnus-summary-exit()
  call-interactively(gnus-summary-exit)


(I've replaces a lot of article numbers with [...], I haven't changed
the other periods.)

The article numbers correspond to those that should be expired. I'm
using total-expire, with an expire-target of Inbox-archive. The
backend is nnml, and I'm running Gnus v5.8.8 taken from Debian
unstable (Linux).

So, does anybody know what I've done wrong? I'm guessing that the
problem is, that Gnus tries to talk to my news server news.stofanet.dk
about my Inbox-archive, but I don't know how do rectify the situation.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
