Checking 'G p' on 'nnml:mail.ding' group revealed the problem. I had set up another group to catch gcc's for 'mail.ding' (making them easier to find) nnml:ding-reply. But when setting that parameter with 'G p' I left off the 'nnml' part, as below: ((to-address . " ding@gnus.org") (to-list . " ding@gnus.org") (visible . t) (gcc-self . "ding-reply")) <== incorrect (gcc-self . "nnml:ding-reply")) <== correct Apparently, without the preceeding 'nnml:' then gnus thinks it is an attempt to setup an nntp group. -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
