Dear Adrian,

That's exactly what I'm looking for. It works great. Thanks a lot.

For the record:

Put this in ~/.gnus.el will show only level 2 groups during Mon to
Fri.

,--------
| (if (< (string-to-number (format-time-string "%u" (current-time))) 6)
|     (setq gnus-activate-level 2
| 	  gnus-group-default-list-level 2))
`--------

Cheers,
