When I tried to start Gnus it began, during the startup, asking my password for ftp site ".god Domain Names". When I tried to find what's going on, I found out that there was an old nnslashdot-group ".god Domain Names: and something". It seems that if the name of an nnslashdot group contains (in a perl syntax) a string "\w+:\s+\w+", Gnus eventually lauches ange-ftp which tries to connect to a site the name of which is the name of the group up to the colon. Unfotunately, I didn't save the backtrace. -- - Matti -
