What you've noticed seems to be true here as well. That is gnus *Does
NOT* remember about `/ D' as I posted, but a `T T' will cause the
dormants to show up. Surely that is a bug eh? In fact, like you, I
rarely use `T T' but have thought a few times that the toggle should go
back to default when the summary buffer is closed or next opened.
Any one else think that should be the behavior, rather than having
`T T' stay in force after leaving the group?
