Thanks for this Reiner. I have downloaded and compiled the newer version
of emacs and so now running the newer gnus and I have now managed to set
the user-agent as I require. Should be seen in this message.

This is my first experiment with gnus and I am most impressed, even as a
long-time slrn user, although I suspect I will always be an slrn user
deep down :-)

 Thanks very much for your help!
