(something more than marking read) You can get the file number by going on-line but where would one get that number, when off line, to be able to quickly edit .overview and .agentview (which does contain the ghost article numbers). Does gnus make an association with these empty articles and there numbers in the NOV files, somewhere that is accessable when off-line? One thought would be to use the limit capabilty and limit the buffer to all marked with "@", then apply some new horrrible mark that renders them invisible unless explicity requested by a command only known to two people in the world. Just forget really expunging them. Dormant is far too useful for other things to be used for that.
