Maybe you do need the gnus-posting-styles for that. Ok, thanks. Final problem I think: Gnus stopped working now... I get something like this in the messages buffer: . . . . . . Aquamacs under the GNU General Public License. Type C-h C-c to view. The mark is not set now, so there is no region Loading gnus...done Loading gnus-start...done Loading gnus-agent...done gnus-group-quit: Wrong type argument: symbolp, (nntp "192.168.1.100") I don't understand that because it worked earlier today with 192.168.1.100 (that's my news-server). What I did was to insert something in my ~/.emacs file which I found on google, but after this message appeared I deleted it again and now gnus won't start. Well, the *Groups* buffer starts, but it's empty. And the gnus-menu bar isn't there... Really annoying... How do I reset everything (delete all the data that gnus has made) ?
