Message-ID: <m2enclcjw5.fsf@proletcult.slip.ifi.uio.no> (raw)
I've had some scary reports on people losing most of the groups from
.newsrc.eld, so it would be nice if you could do this test case.
1) Copy .newsrc.eld to a safe place
2) Do some group sorting commands -- `G S a' etc.
3) `s' to save the .newsrc.eld file
4) Examine if the .newsrc.eld file has shrunk dramatically
5) If this is the case, mail me the old .newsrc.eld file
