We can't really hope for our children or spouses to be humble and obediant, but at least let our software, not give us back talk. I don't think Gnus realizes that I'm the boss here.... hehe. This gnus behavior is paramount to a mutiny. In the server buffer, I gently say `k' on an old quimby server. `Nay', says gnus; `You will NOT kill me, I am gnus quimby server and am uneditable. Go peddle your papers else where'. Well, maybe there are still some quimby groups lurking about. After a carefull examination with `L' in group buffer, I see none. What then, gives my gnus such audacity? Must I put up with such insolence?
