Sounds like a problem with the nnmail-use-long-file-names variable. It is probably set to nil, so it converts group names like "arkiv.test" into the subdirectory arkiv/test. If you set nnmail-use-long-file-names to non-nil, it will not convert group names inot subdirectories. Or, if you create the file arkive/test, gzip it, and restart gnus you should be fine. I don't believe you need to create the nnfolder group with the .gz name. Just call it arkiv.test and it will do the right thing if the arkiv/test (or arkiv.test) file is gzipped. -- Ted Rathkopf
