I have the bad habit of creating a nnml group with B m from time to time.
Problem one: It doesn't show up in the group buffer at all, and I have
to get it via browse (all the Ks, you know), or with a manual G m
afterwards.
Problem two: Why does it go out and check my newsserver for the
presence of the group?

What happens if you do `F'?

This does nothing. The group created by 'B m' is immediately stuffed into
the Zombies. 'F' in the *Group* buffer claims there are no new newsgroups.
It only appears if I do 'A z' in the group buffer, from which I can 'u' to
toggle the subscription status.

Sorry to interrupt :-)
Unfortunately, I don't get the group anywhere, not even as a zombie,
except when browsing the foreign server, neither with 'F' nor without.
Now this may be dependent on my config settings, which have
accumulated over the years ...
I just found all my old lost groups by manually walking through the
server browse buffer and trying 'u' on each line. Interesting.
Any ideas?

Does stopping and starting Emacs/Gnus help any?
