It turns out that I had created my mail groups as "nnml:mail.foo" rather than as just mail.foo. I'm not quite sure how I managed that, because now I can't manage to create nnml:mail.bar even when I try. But subscribing to mail.* rather than nnml:mail.* fixed everything, and it was even easy to move the alist entries in .newsrc.eld so I retained all my reading status. -- Geoff Kuenning geoff@cs.hmc.edu http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~geoff/ Orchestra retrospectively extremely satisfied with symphony [No. 1] as result of barrel of free beer. -- Gustav Mahler, post-premiere letter to Arnold Berliner
