One partial solution to above was posted here recently to similar query of mine. It forces gnus to download anything you read. Could have repercussions in groups where you don't want that but I suspect it could be put into Group Parameters or agent-parameters. (I don't know how myself) This is a partial repost of Kevin G's (hope he doesn't mind) from message-id: Message-ID: ====================================================================== >> HP Harry Putnam writes: >> HP Whats the trick way to sort a large summary buffer to display only >> HP undownloaded messages?
