Yikes, I should have looked a little closer but the nnml.el line in todays cvs are almost identical. Of course that is what patches are all about. So duly patched byte compiled and restarted. The bad news is I see no difference. The ghosts are still there. > How do procmail generate a nnml group? Does it do everything Gnus > does to create a nnml group? This may very well be the cause of the > problem. Nothing tricky... I just meant in the normal way. That is, I have a procmail spool directory where all incoming messages go to a file named `prinb.in'. Gnus slurps from that file and puts the messages in nnml group `prinb'. That is where the difficulty is occuring. So that nnml group is not made by hand nor is it a product of the nnmail split. It is generated from a procmail spool file. From this code: (setq nnmail-use-procmail t) (setq mail-sources '((directory :path "/home/reader/spool/" :suffix ".in"))) > Try the patch first.

Press `e' to evaluate variables. OK, thanks... working on that now.
