Perhaps there should be an explicit "make this article persistant" command to avoid other side-effects of using caching? Yes, I think I'll add that to the todo list. I think those articles should be marked with "P"; so they're marked as read, perhaps. Or perhaps they're a special kind of dormant articles? Or perhaps they're just normal dormant articles? A `gnus-persistant-dormant-articles' variable to control whether all dormant articles should be cached, perhaps? > Nit to pick with Lars: When I `M D', the articles are not threaded > correctly, That's been fixed in September, I think. > and have no `A r' property (which I assume is a related issue). I haven't heard of that bug before... could you send me a bug report? -- Home is where the cat is.
