Hi Reiner, thanks for that...I thought you needed to set it up yourself.

There was something fishy going on with message buffers, but it's
fixed. (The problem was this, that I pasted from somewhere:

;;save copies of sent mail
(setq gnus-message-archive-group
           '(concat "mail." (format-time-string "%Y-%m")))

which sounds nice but was giving this error whenever I opened a message
buffer: 

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp concat)
  gnus-inews-insert-archive-gcc()
  run-hooks(message-header-setup-hook)
  message-setup-1(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil)
  message-setup(((To . "") (Subject . "")) nil nil nil nil)
  message-mail()
  gnus-group-mail(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-group-mail nil nil)

Thanks,
