Hi:

After a massive filesystem crash (corrupted both of my mirror-RAIDed
disks in perfect harmony), I'm attempting to re-construct my gnus
setup.  I've recovered my Mail, mail, News, and news directories.
When I try to start gnus, I get this message (bytecodes <snip>ped):

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "No such newsgroup: queue")
  signal(error ("No such newsgroup: queue"))
  error("No such newsgroup: %s" "queue")
  nnmh-possibly-change-directory("queue" "")
  nnmh-request-group("queue" "" nil)
  apply(nnmh-request-group ("queue" "" nil))
  nnoo-parent-function(nndraft nnmh-request-group ("queue" "" nil))
  nndraft-request-group("queue" "" nil)
  byte-code("<snip>")
  gnus-activate-group("nndraft:queue" scan)
  gnus-get-unread-articles(nil)
  gnus-setup-news(nil nil nil)
  byte-code("<snip>")
  gnus()


I've searched the remnants of the old disk for any file or directory
called "queue" to no avail.

Any ideas how I could start fixing this?  I don't think that I had any
important drafts in process before the crash, so creating an empty
version of whatever gnus is looking for in the way of draft queue
would be a fine solution.

gnus 5.9.0
emacs 21.3.1

Thank you.
