I switched it on, and I misremembered slightly how it worked. It's like a non-permanent "unseen" mark -- it'll stay there until you visit the group, or you exit Gnus. I've now implemented the same logic for nnimap. > I *think* that's right too.

I used to show %U instead of %R -- that is, only show how many unseen articles there are in each group, because I'd also do that. And that works across Gnus sessions, too. But if you never quit/restart Gnus, then there isn't much difference between the two. :-) (Except that %R works on NNTP groups, too.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
