Quite nice. Reason I need it is that I've got a couple of neophyte users converted to Gnus, and they have difficulty groking the fact that there is mail that can't be seen. I tried to circumvent it by automatically marking new articles as read when they select them, but it seems they're still able to mark articles as read which subsequently stay on disk indefinitely but they don't even know these are there. No wonder they don't seem to read my mails! 1/2 :-) Anyway, how do I make it so that nnml groups are automatically (display . all)? I know about the topic parameters thing but I want it in the site-wide config, and topic parameters are stored in the .newsrc.eld. And a feature wish: WIBNI if the display parameter accepted a list of symbols like `dormant', `ticked', `unread', `expirable', such that I could make it so that one group showed all dormant articles only, by default? (I agree that's silly, but what I really want is `show all articles except the expirable ones'.) kai -- I like both kinds of music.
