I am now posting/reading to ding using the excellent gmane service. Problem gnus in gmane is quite big (more than 50 thousand articles). I have asked my agent to cache 10000 articles (yeah it is too many but it was a test to see how all worked). Problem is then I want to visit my gnus group, I still have to answer to the question 'how many ...'. I know this is normal but it would be cool if I could tell gnus not to ask how many articles it can fetch since it is higly likely I won't fetch the first 40000 articles. Is there a simple way to say so with gnus (ie. force gnus to forget about very old articles) ? Thank you zeDek -- .o. | zedek (at) gnu-rox.org ..o Hacker Wonderland | ooo |
