Once again, released 5.6 has gotten out the door with
nnmail-delete-incoming set to nil.  For the masses, it should have
been turned on.

Yup.  Fix in Gnus v5.6.3.

Yes.  Hardy alpha users can also stick sumpin in their config file
that sets nnmail-delete-incoming to t :-)

I'm just now trying out Red Gnus 0.53, after having used Gnus 5.3 for
quite a while, and I noticed that the default value of
nnmail-delete-incoming has changed from t to nil (which caused some
extra space consumption until I noticed it.)

Is this intentional, as a safeguard during alpha times?  (And, if so,
why not let the hardy alpha-users set it to "safe" mode themselves if
they're afraid to lose a little mail? :) )  In any case, it should
probably be changed back before beta release, IMO.
