Gnus needs to keep marks other than the above in the .newsrc.el file; if it only tries to store them remotely it will fail. >> Gnus needs to work correcly with gnus-propagate-marks nil. DA> Perhaps so. Can you define what "correctly" means in this case? Store the flags in .newsrc.eld and use them. As it is, ticked articles confuse the unread counts in Group enough that gnus even tries to open the group when it should pass over. (There is some variation depending on which version of gnus I was running when each article was ticked.) Everything worked fine, incidently, until gnus started trying to store everything on the imap server. -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6
