good guess!

mine doesn't (see below). Is this one of those things I "should
complain bitterly to the NetNews administrators" about?

Does this mean my NOV is eVIl? (I don't really understand the full
repercussions, apart from the obvious that scoring on Xref won't
work). Would I be better served by setting g-n-i-e:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
gnus-nov-is-evil's value is nil

Documentation:
If non-nil, Gnus backends will never output headers in the NOV format.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for any advice,
