However if you do it your way, Gnus will still number new articles using the old range right? In other words, if I have 13 messages in nnmh:inbox, and the last article is number 158 (Xref: ashanti inbox:158), I can edit the range with `G E', but the Xref's won't be changed to match the pack so the next new article inc'd by Gnus will be 159, then 160, etc.. This doesn't really help much. Jason R. Mastaler jason@mastaler.com
