You might want to consider reading the 'Agent Visuals' section of the manual if you would like to override the default behavior. > By the way, I discovered another problem with the new agent code.

It just means that at sometime in the distant past you agentized this group for a short time. As the server's active range moved forward these articles became lost and forgotten. Due to recent bug fix, gnus will now expand the active range to include all old agentized articles. Personally, I'd resolve this by using a negative number (perhaps -100) for the article count when opening the group. That should result in the old agentized articles being displayed. You can then mark them as read. Gnus will, upon being started the next time, show the 600 currently active articles. Kevin
