My, probably overzealous, nndraft/queue set up is
,----
| (setq nnml-directory "~/.emacs.d/Mail/")
|
| (setq nndraft-directory "~/.emacs.d/Mail/drafts/")
|
| (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods nil)
|
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
| '(nndraft ""
| (nndraft-directory "~/.emacs.d/Mail/drafts/")
| ))
`----
All works fine. I go offline with the agent J j. Then, when I quit
gnus, nndraft-directory is reset back to .emacs.d/drafts on gnus
restart.

Yes. nndraft-directory is a backend slot, not a variable.

I'm sorry but I dont understand this at all. What is a backend slot? It
doesnt come up in a manual search.
In my config I even had, out of my ignorance as to how all this works,
this bit you snipped :
| (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
| '(nndraft ""
| (nndraft-directory "~/.emacs.d/Mail/drafts/")
| ))
Is that not using a "back end slot"? If not could you explain a little
more please as the same issue or phrase has now stumped me with spam
splitting - the config I posted has been passed by gnus experts for
months and no one ever mentioned backend slots before
Sorry if this is obvious but I'm now officially lost ;(
thanks
