How do I get > rid of the sucker! `G [delete]` works for me. Here's the info: G delete runs `gnus-group-delete-group' `gnus-group-delete-group' is an interactive compiled Lisp function -- loaded from "gnus-group.elc" (gnus-group-delete-group GROUP &optional FORCE) Delete the current group. Only meaningful with mail groups. If FORCE (the prefix) is non-nil, all the articles in the group will be deleted. This is "deleted" as in "removed forever from the face of the Earth". There is no undo. The user will be prompted before doing the deletion. hth, Francisco -- Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don't add up.
