Bummer, no luck. I did "g" like I always to to injest mail, then tried
both C-u SPACE then C-u RETURN. No joy. From the *Messages* buffer:

    Retrieving newsgroup: nnml:list.fw1-wizards@phoneboy.com...
    Opening nnml server on +nnml:list.fw1-wizards@phoneboy.com...
    Invalid group (no such directory)
    Couldn't request group nnml:list.fw1-wizards@phoneboy.com: Invalid group (no such directory)
    Retrieving newsgroup: nnml:list.fw1-wizards@phoneboy.com...
    Invalid group (no such directory)
    Couldn't request group nnml:list.fw1-wizards@phoneboy.com: Invalid group (no such directory)


But it lies:

  /export/home/cshenton/Mail/list:
  drwxr-sr-x   3 cshenton staff        512 Jul 24 09:30 fw1-wizards@phoneboy

Yikes, I have 6000 since the beginning of the July. (No wonder WAIS is
taking so long...)
