So far I've got this in my .emacs: (setq gnus-home-directory "~/gnus/" gnus-directory "~/gnus/News/" message-directory "~/gnus/Mail/") This works okay, except that my .newsrc.eld files don't seem to be getting read: marks are still incorrect (everything marked as unread) for all my groups, and some groups can't be entered. At least, I assume that the problem is with reading .newsrc files, though gnus-startup-file returns "~/gnus/.newsrc". Are there any other variables I can set to make sure everything reads out of this one directory? Thanks, Eric
