In Sgnus 5.2.4 and emacs 19.31 when I try to exit an nnml group, the following debug trace is generated. It looks as though it is trying to save an adaptive score file to a file with an illegal OS/2 name (because it has expanded ~/ to include the driive letter AND it has included the 'nnnml+graham:' prefix which also includes a ':') Under emacs 19.30.1, this problem did not occur and I can find no trace of any score files for my nnml mail groups. After I had upgraded emacs, I rebuilt gnus 5.2.4 which is in its own directory which my .emacs file adds to the start of the load-path.
