Does `gnus-prompt-before-saving' help?

,----[ (info "(gnus)Saving Articles") ]
|    All these commands use the process/prefix convention (*note
| Process/Prefix::).  If you save bunches of articles using these
| functions, you might get tired of being prompted for files to save each
| and every article in.  The prompting action is controlled by the
| `gnus-prompt-before-saving' variable, which is `always' by default,
| giving you that excessive prompting action you know and loathe.  If you
| set this variable to `t' instead, you'll be prompted just once for each
| series of articles you save.  If you like to really have Gnus do all
| your thinking for you, you can even set this variable to `nil', which
| means that you will never be prompted for files to save articles in.
| Gnus will simply save all the articles in the default files.

Bye, Reiner.
