What > does *in many ways* mean? Native groups are listed without a prefix. That is, you'll find "foo.bar" for a native group whereas there will be "nnml:foo.bar" or "nntp:foo.bar" for a secondary group. Since .newsrc.eld stores group info based on its name, you'll quickly see where the problem is when going from primary to secondary... Maybe it's best to look at your .newsrc.eld and to frob the group names mentioned there. But make a backup of the file, first! Or maybe you can go back to having nnml as the native method. kai -- ~/.signature: No such file or directory
