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 ???
