If that is the case, you must have customized the meaning of '*' in the *Group* buffer: "2.1.1 Group Line Specification The default format of the group buffer is nice and dull, but you can make it as exciting and ugly as you feel like. Here’s a couple of example group lines: 25: news.announce.newusers * 0: alt.fan.andrea-dworkin Quite simple, huh? You can see that there are 25 unread articles in ‘news.announce.newusers’. There are no unread articles, but some ticked articles, in ‘alt.fan.andrea-dworkin’ (see that little asterisk at the beginning of the line?)." - http://gnus.org/manual/gnus_12.html#Group-Buffer-Format Best regards, Adam -- "I've enjoyed seeing C++ catch up to Perl in the past Adam Sjøgren decade or so." asjo@koldfront.dk
