Subject: Fresh Emacs and pgnus on Win95 box

OK.  I have succumbed to the temptation of pgnus.  I have read this
list for months, but only now have I decided to dip my toes into the
water.

I have installed Emacs-20.3.10, and pgnus-0.88.  I installed them to
d:\emacs.  I have Emacs-20.3.8.1, and Gnus-5.6.45 on c:\.

Questions:

1.  I had a d:\emacs\lisp\gnus, when I installed emacs.  I deleted
    this and put pgnus, under d:\emacs\site-lisp\pgnus.  This didn't
    work as it wasn't in the load path.  I therefore moved it to
    d:\emacs\lisp\gnus, where it worked.  How to I get the site-lisp
    directory to add its directories to the load-path?

2.  How do I proceed?  I mean all my old mail, is on c:\emacs\Mail.
    Shall I just copy my .emacs and .gnus here copy my Mail from
    within Gnus or will this cause problems?

3.  How do I find out what variables have changes etc?  for instance I
    now get prompted for a POP password with nnmail.  I am sure there
    are some things in my .gnus and .emacs that are obsolete, because
    I have had problems in the past, migrating to pgnus.

Thank you

Shaun
