Thanks, but I have this -
 (setq  gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number (not gnus-thread-sort-by-date)) ; inverted sorting: newest threads on top

	  gnus-treat-buttonize t			; Add buttons
      gnus-treat-buttonize-head 'head	; Add buttons to the head
      gnus-treat-emphasize t			; Emphasize text
      gnus-treat-display-smileys t		; Use Smilies
      gnus-treat-strip-cr 'last			; Remove carriage returns
      gnus-treat-hide-headers 'head		; Hide headers

	  gnus-boring-article-headers '(empty followup-to newsgroups many-to reply-to)
      gnus-treat-hide-boring-headers 'head ; -Hide boring headers
										;gnus-fetch-old-headers 'some        ; prevent teared threads by loading older but read postings
      gnus-fetch-old-headers 250 ; this should achieve the same result, without the excessive waiting for some groups
	  
gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent "* "
      gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-leaf "+-> "
      gnus-summary-display-arrow t
      gnus-summary-line-format "%0{%U%R%z%}%3{│%} %1{%d%} %3{│%}  %4{%-20,20f%}  %3{│%} %1{%B%}%s\n"
      ;gnus-summary-line-format "%U%R%z%d %I%(%[ %s %]%)\n"
      ;gnus-summary-line-format "%U%R%z%I%(%[%4L: %-23,23f%]%) %s\n" ; default
)

but I can't see how to add '&user-date;' in the middle of a list? Perhaps I'm being dim?

Sharon.
