Do you mean that you have 200+ | previously spooled but marked as unread or ticked mesages in the group | and you receive 20 more more recently, and want to read just those 20? Sorry, but I didn't explain good enough. I have some groups that has received more than 200 articles. I have been using B DEL to get rid of old articles and now have about 20 articles left in these groups. These articles are marked as read. Then, when I try to enter the group, Gnus prompts me for a number of articles. It may say that the dafult is 250, but since I have deleted them, only 20 or so exists on my disk. That's what's bugging me. Do you understand better now? | TL> Is there a way to fix this without setting gnus-large-group to | TL> something very high? | | Gnus does not care when messages arrive; if you have 200+ unread | messages in a group, it sees 200+ unread messages in that group. If you | do not want older messages to be counted you must mark them as read or | expirable. As I said above, there are only 20 read articles left in the group. BTW: What do you use to cite messages? I liked your setup :-) -- Thomas Larsen
