I want the select method that SERVER and PARAMETERS came from, so that I can pass it back to various gnus functions that expect a select method as an argument. gnus-group-prefixed-name, for example. (In that case, I could pass the prefixed server name instead, but then gnus-group-prefixed-name would just try to find the select method itself.) paul
