Otherwise, the only valid completions are the groups I have already subscribed to. The Gnus tutorial led me to believe that tab-completion should always work, so I wonder if something's wrong. Shouldn't the newsrc.eld file save a list of all the available newsgroups, so I don't have to read the whole active file every time? I suspect this isn't happening since it is very small (4 KB). Thanks for any advice.
