nnregistry.el doesn't define that function.  I'm pretty sure you're not
supposed to ask it for group info.

As you can probably see from the backtrace, I'm not the one doing the
asking.

I don't mean you personally :)

You created an ephemeral group
"nndoc+4E821BF6.3070409@boostpro.com-ephemeral:4E821BF6.3070409@boostpro.com".

Now you're trying to enter it and nnregistry is somehow supposed to hold
that group.  I'm honestly not sure how to fix this or how it happened.
I really don't know the group and summary structures of Gnus, so I hope
Lars or someone else more knowledgeable can pick this up.

Thanks
Ted

Hold?  Sorry, I don't understand.

All this code was working until I added the stuff that entered the new
article in the registry (you saw it in my other post).

I don't quite understand.  How come that call to `gnus-request-group'
turns into an nnregistry call?

Are you askin' me?  I don't understand the internals of this part of
gnus at all.  Maybe someone else does...
