How about trying removal of useless servers? To do that for example: (let (archive) (while (setq archive (assoc "archive" gnus-server-alist)) (setq gnus-server-alist (delq archive gnus-server-alist))) (push (cons "archive" gnus-message-archive-method) gnus-server-alist)) This should be done while Gnus is running.
