The docstring of `gnus-refer-article-method' begins: *Preferred method for fetching an article by Message-ID. If you are reading news from the local spool (with nnspool), fetching articles by Message-ID is painfully slow. By setting this method to an nntp method, you might get acceptable results.* This seems a tad outdated? Maybe this is no longer the most important use-case for this variable, and shouldn't be the first thing the user is confronted with? Andy
