Hi all,

This message is a kind of carry on to my message about searching. I wanted
to try notmuch. Historically I use gnus just for email (all nnml). So my
gnus-select-method is:

  (setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))

Well, I also have:

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '((nndiary "")))

but I haven't actually used nndairy in a while. My group display is:

     0, 229: acmecorp
     0,   7: acmecorp.engineering
    38, 194: acmecorp.discuss

etc.

The setup instructions for nnir, suggested doing this:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nnml ""
                                (nnir-search-engine notmuch)
                                ))

When I restart gnus, I get all of my existing groups, but I also get these

  2342,   0: nnml:acmecorp
   222,   0: nnml:acmecorp.engineering
  3332,   0: nnml:acmecorp.discuss

I don't actually care about the nnml: prefix, but I'd like to have a
single list and I'd like not to loose all my existing marks.

Anyone have any idea why my change had the effect that it did? Or how
to get it fixed?

                                        Be seeing you,
                                          norm
