It should not hide old articles, but it would make `/ D' and `/ *' display all dormant / cached articles instead those inside the limit. It would have to show all ticked articles, since there is no `gnus-summary-limit-include-ticked' command. I don't care if what it does about unread articles that were excluded by the old limit; my interest is in the case when I'm looking at old articles. What do people use that limit for, anyway? It's good when I don't want Gnus to show all the *unread* articles, but it's never what I want when I use it to read recent *old* articles. I thought of this because of the recent `show dormants' thread -- The TODO list contains the item * command to display all dormant articles. which I think is due to me. Please erase that item and replace it with my suggestion above; then `/ D' can be used to dispaly all dormants. -- Hallvard
