I'm not sure the value of check-new-newsgroups is relevant, but I think save-killed-list is. I'm not sure what the solution to this problem is, setting save-killed-list makes my 16k newsrc bloat to 221k. I would prefer to have F or C-u F make Gnus read the active file and after that have `j' and `U' and their ilk dtrt. greg
