Excuse me not getting to that earlier; I managed, accidentally, to have Gnus
ignore comp.emacs.xemacs for half a week :-( .
Gnus people, when you’ve subscribed to a group, and have read all the
messages in that group, and the line for that group has disappeared from the
*Groups* buffer, what’s the sanctioned way to go back and reread those
messages? I type “U” in the “*Group*” buffer, subscribe to
comp.emacs.xemacs, read 50 messages, and then I seem to be unsubscribed from
it, which is exactly what I don’t want.
Anyway, Alan, tell us if recode with trn works for you. A few minutes’
googling doesn’t give me anything better as a suggestion, besides using the
UTF-8 branch of Mutt together with a news-mail gateway.

Use `j' or `L'...
,----[ (info "(gnus)Group Maneuvering") ]
| `j'
| Jump to a group (and make it visible if it isn't already)
| (`gnus-group-jump-to-group'). Killed groups can be jumped to, just
| like living groups.
`----
,----[ (info "(gnus)Listing Groups") ]
| `L'
| `A u'
| List all groups, whether they have unread articles or not
| (`gnus-group-list-all-groups'). If the numeric prefix is used,
| this command will list only groups of level ARG and lower. By
| default, it lists groups of level seven or lower (i.e., just
| subscribed and unsubscribed groups).

Bye, Reiner.

FWIW, (as a Gnus non-expert) I have:
(setq gnus-permanently-visible-groups "^.*")
in my init file because I have repeatedly been bitten in the bum by
groups disappearing when all their messages are read.
