OK. My machine just crashed when gnus was saving its .newsrc.eld file.
For starters... shouldn't be make this transactional? I mean why not back up
the file, try to save it and then remove the backup.
If a backup file exists when gnus starts up we could restore it.
My question is... is there a way to have gnus reread and recreate the correct
.newsrc.eld file from my ~/Mail directory ???
