As Kai pointed out, if gnus-use-cache is t then ticked and dormant are automatically cached except in uncacheable groups (typically mail groups). He also points out that this can be customized with gnus-cache-enter-articles and gnus-cache-remove-articles. That latter defaults to (read), which may cause some grief if you use * to cache articles rather than tick'ing or marking as dormant since the article will be removed as soon as it's read. If you're using the cache to preserve articles beyond a news server's expiration then that is less than ideal. I found that out the hard way so I have since gone to marking as dormant to preserve such articles. Just in case, though, I have also set gnus-cache-remove-articles to nil. -- Dave Goldberg Post: The Mitre Corporation\MS B305\202 Burlington Rd.\Bedford, MA 01730 Phone: 781-271-3887 Email: dsg@mitre.org
