One reason I use nnfolder is so I can have gzipped nnfolders (I have 134MB already, gzipped) and regzipping a 9MB file every time I expire a message (about a 100 messages a day in that group) would quickly make me hate life. 8^) How about just making it save when you do gnus-group-save-newsrc... no, that really doesn't make sense. How about a "gnus-group-save-everything" which I can bind to s in *Group*? I guess I could just add something to gnus-save-newsrc-hook. -- Alan Shutko - In a variety of flavors!
