I use the following settings which at least sorts their articles together with their "parents": ,----- | (setq gnus-fetch-old-headers 1000) | (setq gnus-thread-ignore-subject t) | (setq gnus-summary-make-false-root 'empty) `----- I observe, though, that the fetch-old-headers mechanism doesn't work for these references-less mails. Ie I type 9 RET to enter a group and if there is a references-less followup among these 9 articles, Gnus doesn't fetch the parent. Is there some magic that I can use to get what I want? Or did I turn of the feature with one of the variables above? kai -- Life is hard and then you die.
