Howdy-
One trivial feature request that I have is to add a hook by that name.
I am a little surprised that no one has requested it yet, since it seems
that there are many things that one would want to do after getting new
news.
For example, I have a group "nnml:mail.garbage" that is where I send all
my trash when splitting. I have it set to total-expire and expire in -1
days (immediately). However, I still have to manually catch up the
group, and at some point, expire it (gnus-group-expire-all-groups).
Instead, I would like to have the following in my .gnus:
(add-hook 'gnus-get-new-news-post-hook 'cor:gnus-empty-garbage)
(defun cor:gnus-empty-garbage ()
"Empty my garbage can."
(interactive)
(let ((gnus-interactive-catchup nil)
(gnus-group-marked '("nnml:mail.garbage")))
(gnus-group-catchup-current)
(gnus-group-expire-articles nil)))
Is there any possibility of adding this hook variable, or is there some
other that I should be using?
Thanks a lot.

I've now added a hook called `gnus-after-getting-new-news-hook'. (I
though the "post" part was potentially confusing.)
