Re: Saving old mail articles

I guess that many people use saving because they don't know about
copying and moving.  You can use `B m' to move an article to another
group -- the difference is that the original is deleted, and also
that the target is a group instead of a file.

Maybe you really need a file, and a group won't do.  But maybe a
group is good enough, then maybe `B m' is useful.  Also see
gnus-move-split-methods -- then you don't even have to enter the
target group name :-)

Gnus can also move articles to other groups when they are expired.
See nnmail-expiry-target.  Only available in Oort Gnus.

A preposition is not a good thing to end a sentence with.

I have partial-completion turned on, too, and I can't remember any
problems with completion after `B m'.

Hm.
