When I started Gnus today, it yelled at me with Reading active file via nnslashdot... Symbol's function definition is void: url-cookie-parse-file And then Gnus refused to load. I had to do C-u 2 M-x gnus for it to ignore the Slashdot groups. I have no idea why this function is no longer defined. I haven't changed anything in the last week. This is on Gnus 5.8.3. This points up another problem with Gnus. If one backend fails, this shouldn't kill the whole loading process. It should just fail that backend and move along with any other backends that might exist. Jack
