Mainly true - but you can also change settings from within gnus
(e.g. customize group) which are stored in your init.el (?) and I think
there are other files created by GNUS to store settings?
So removing your *manual* configurations you made in your e.g. gnus.el
is trivial and I can't help with the others because I avoid them
(because I don't know where they are stored).
Cheers,
Rainer
