Could you describe what you mean by "The topic is closed" and why you
think you can't post a followup?
Different newsservers have different retention times.
If you can't find one with a long enough span, you can always either
subscribe to the mailinglist or read it on gmane.
Best regards,

All messages before 1 Sep 2005 don't have the 'Reply' button at their
end.
Maybe there's another way to reply...?

I gather then that you are *not* using Gnus to read this
newsgroup/mailinglist?
It makes it quite a bit harder to help you, when you don't say
anything about how and with what you are trying to accomplish things.

No, I'm not using Gnus to read newsgroups, not even mail,
I'm just learning to use Gnus and am using it shortly to catch mail.
I should've said before, but forgot it might be important.
So, is it difficult to configure Gnus so to read gnu.emacs.gnus
with it?
Thanks,
Rodolfo

no, not at all. I think it's quite a bit easier than configuring gnus
to read your mail.
First, point gnus at your newserver in your .gnus. Like this:
(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "your.news.host"))
Then, after starting gnus and letting it get the active file -- that
might take a while -- you can jump to gnu.emacs.gnus by hittin 'j' in
the Group buffer. You can subscribe to it by hitting 'u'.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything. You can check the gnus
documentation to make sure.

Thanks.
I put in ~/.gnus.el the following:
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nntp "news.gnus.org"))
. Then I started Gnus and in server buffer I hit RET onto
{nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened)
, placed point onto 'gnu.emacs.gnus' and hit 'u',
then 'q' and 'q' again to get back to the group buffer.
