No, I can't, and mail loss is a serious issue that would be highly visible on the list if it happened in ordinary situations. It must be a result of your configuration (including the history of groups you created and deleted), but I don't know how to debug it further. If you've just started using Gnus, you could try starting over from scratch: export your mail to some format, delete all Gnus files (including .newsrc* and the tree of mail folders), and import your mail into a fresh set-up of Gnus. You'll lose your marks, but maybe it's worth it. Dan
