Here's what I do: (setq gnus-agent t) and restart gnus. I want to download all articles for my groups. From the documentation I read that I need to create a new category and then add all groups to this category (this seems a bit to complicated, but I play along). This is what I do: - `J c' in the group buffer - `a' to add a new category called "everything" - `e' to edit the category - Change the "Selection Predicate" from `false' to `true' - Press "Done" The result is this: gnus-category-prepare: Wrong type argument: sequencep, ignore and nothing seems to work properly after this. Am I going about this the wrong way? Is there a better way to tell the agent to download all my messages? Niklas
