Aha, I thought I remembered their being some trick way to do it. All other marks used with '/ m' are inserted before the . Like: '/ m O' or '/ m E' It isn't apparent that the cache mark needs to be done differently. The page on 'Limiting' doesn't indicate any difference, and looks as if it is treated the same as the others. I'd like to make a small suggestion for two changes on that page that might be a little clearer. 1) Where it says: `/ m' Ask for a mark and then limit to all articles that have not been marked with that mark (`gnus-summary-limit-to-marks'). Change to: `/ m' Ask for a mark and then limit to all articles that have been marked with that mark (`gnus-summary-limit-to-marks'). (removing the confusing 'not') 2)Where it says: `/ *' Display all cached articles (`gnus-summary-limit-include-cached'). Change to: `/ *' Display all cached articles (press '/ m / *') (`gnus-summary-limit-include-cached'). (since this is differnt than other uses of '/ m') -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com
