Creating .overview file?

Creating .overview file?

[jari.aalto]

    I noticed that some of my overview files had disappeared and I 
    have no clue how that happened. How do I let Gnus recreate them?
    And could gnus map over all nnml groups and create them automatically?

Watch out. There was a patch in qgnus16 or qgnus17 that fixed a bug with this
particular funtion. You better download the newest version and then generate
the overview files.

Thanks a lot for the warning! Fortunately I'm running the latest here,
but i must keep this in mind for my other accounts.
