I think you can do that by setting the group levels below some connection threshold, like 6 or 7. Is it an option for you to maintain separate Gnus configurations and separate newsrc files for "everything but cox" and "cox"? That's more of a sledge hammer approach, but it works for some. -- Rat \ Do not use Happy Fun Ball on concrete.
