In the meantime, I found the first one in the imap.el todo list, so consider this request as an encouragement :) ] The ability to store newsrc data on an IMAP server (Pine can do this with it's config file), or maybe on an LDAP server (like Netscape Communicator roaming profiles) in Gnus would be a nice feature; people could have access to the same set of non-local (IMAP and NNTP) groups sharing all the group attributes, from different hosts not sharing the same file system (say, from work and home). A slightly realted wishlist item: the cache mechanism should be able to use any (suitable) backend for stroring cached articles, not only nnml. Andras
