Thanks Jorge, nope I haven't, its a bog standard setup. Hmm, not
quite true, My ".gnus" is on the end of an org-mode file which is my
emacs init.org. So it gets tangled and parsed quite a bit, but this
time is the first time that I've had problems with it. And it is
just so rock-solid and stable!
Sharon.
