Hence, I have turned off admin capability from my normal account. I have also created a second IMAP account for me to do IMAP server administration (group permissions, new groups, the like). I find that either one feature or the other is missing from Gnus, or I'm doing things the wrong way. Can anybody help? I went into the server buffer and created a new nnimap server; used a different name. Added an entry in ~/.authinfo for the new server, specifying the admin account and password. So far, so good. But how do I actually create new groups and change the ACL on existing groups without cluttering my normal view of groups? I tried to browse the server, but that buffer does not have the necessary commands. So I could add a group from the admin server to my normal view then change the ACL from there. But this seems clumsy. kai -- A large number of young women don't trust men with beards. (BFBS Radio)
