AFAIK, it does not support the new mail-sources variable (uses nnmail-spool-file instead), and it also doesn't support the maildir functionality. If you want to read the correct manual for the software you're using, I recommend to NOT look in the web. Instead, type C-h i and then choose Gnus from the list. -- ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis)
