Unfortunately not, AFAIK... it would be nice of there was one. Another thing I would have liked to have is the ability to return to the search results after A T and tick in the Summary (perhaps with the ticked articles removed from the search results...?) > Do you mean there is a way to do A T en-masse, just process mark? Or > are you talking about doing all the A T by hand? The latter, unfortunately. If you wants 200 articles by one author in different threads, I can see that it would be quite a chore. > In your scheme would the mesgs then be downloaded or do you mean to > just leave them online? I have a setup where reading the articles downloads them into the agent. It's an oooold setting, but seems to still be working. That is: working a bit flaky, like the rest of the agent (I have some threads on this with debug results posted to gmane.emacs.gnus.general).
