That '/ *' is pretty slick.

I have gnus-use-cache set to 't'

But still, no cache server shows up in '^' from group buffer.
So apperantly it can work differenly on differernt setups even if both

I have many messages in cache and since they are 'ticked' (a form of
unread) then they show up when entering a group along with the regular unread.
