Paul, I noticed  a warning on our pages about skipping versions and
what it might cause, but I see no handy way to tell which version is
currently in use.  Nothing in the *.el file to indicate version.

I already know my version was the previous release but seems there
should be some way to tell.

Also maybe a condensed version of the info on our pages as a
`comments' section.  Findable with M-x finder-commentary.

I'm going to take a stab at that, and will send you the result.

Also, I've considered moving our discussion about nnmaildir from
gnu.emacs.gnus to here.  It has gotten somewhat detailed.

There should be a private message on you incoming spool some where
with a detailed report, see:
