If you mean ~/Mail being recreated, I think that's because of nndraft. WIBNI if we could do something like: (setq gnus-draft-group "nnfoo:group.name") where nnfoo would be any backend that supports the necessary operations? Then we wouldn't need an extra backend solely for drafts. Or is nndraft too unlike any other backend? It derives from nnmh, so I wouldn't think it would be impossibly different. paul
