The default method is to use the "archive virtual server" to store the mail. If you want to disable this completely, you should set `gnus-message-archive-group' to `nil'. So, I went ahead and declared `gnus-message-archive-group' as `nil' in my .gnus, removed the archive virtual server from my server buffer and rmdir ~/Mail/archive. Nevertheless, the next time I run gnus both the virtual server and ~/Mail/archive are back. It seems setting `gnus-message-archive-group' to `nil' is not as complete a solution as the manual says. Are there other variables I should be setting in order to get rid of archive once and for all? Kevin
