Gnus tries to change my .emacs

Gnus tries to change my .emacs

[Cecil Westerhof]

I have a system wide .emacs and of course it is write protected.
Sometimes when I send an e-mail Gnus tries to change the .emacs. I get a
message that the file is write protected and when I answer on the
question if it has to be changed no, then my e-mail is not send. When I
then immediately try to send it again, there is no problem.

Why is Gnus trying to write to my .emacs? As I understood it, this
should not be the case.

As you say, it should not be the case.
Has it already been like this, or have you modified something recently?
