I had been using procmail to shuffle incoming mailing lists and then nnml in Gnus to create mail groups for the mailing lists. This worked great. The Gnus 5.8.8 servers configuration is different and I made the appropriate changes so that I could continue to process the mailing lists using procmail and nnml. When I start Gnus, it processes any "spooled" mailing list messages and moves them to the nnml hierarchy, including updating the .overview files. Now the weird part. The Group buffer doesn't show the mailing list groups. Fine, I just invoke the server management screen and subscribe to the groups. When I leave the server management screen, the groups appear in the Group buffer. I can select the groups and see the message summaries. When I quit Gnus and then start it up again later, the mailing list groups disappear, even though I haven't actually read any of the messages. I can start up the server management and the groups are there, but unsubscribed. I can subscribe to them, in which case the whole cycle repeats as described above. Similarly, me normal Usenet newgroups disappear as well. Initially they were there, but once I quit and restart Gnus, they disappear. I tried removing the .newsrc.eld file. When I do this and go through the motions of subscribing to the mailing list groups and then quit Gnus, the contents of the .newsrc.eld file that is created looks reasonable. I see all my Usenet groups imported from the .newsrc file and I see the mailing list groups. However, when I start Gnus again, everything disappears and when I quit Gnus, the resulting .newsrc.eld file doesn't show any of the groups at all. I even tried blowing away the active file and all the existing mail group directories. When I start Gnus, nnml recreates everything just as I would expect it and all the new mail is in the hierarchy just as I would expect. I've looked through the gnu.emacs.gnus archive on Google and I don't see anything that sounds like the problems I am encountering. I'm hoping someone out there can lend me a hand. Thanks.
