Do you know the reason for this difference? I've been confused by this
before and never understood why there were two places/ways to store group
information.
When we changed the service name for our IMAP server, I ended editing
.newsrc.eld by hand. The server name was in so many places that was the only
fast way to make the change. I expected it to only be in one place.
I'm sure I'm missing something! :)
