I'm kinda wondering at the utility of listing these "known", but uneditable servers in the server buffer. I think it might make sense not to display them by default. On the other hand, I do sometimes `D' a secondary server if it's sufficiently annoying. So perhaps that's not a good idea. > The obvious method to find out which one is the right one is to hit > `e', but `e' on the secondary server (from (add-to-list > 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "du" > ...parameters.snipped...))) doesn't give any useful data because > secondary servers cannot be edited. > > WIBNI there was a command to at least see the parameters of such > secondary servers?

Uhm... it could at least rename the servers in some strange, but wonderful manner. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
