What should I do to stop gnus from retrieving duplicate emails? Also, I want to have the seen flag on so that in case if I use the web to access my email and mark it as read then also I want it to be downloaded. Is there any way I can force gnus to delete some emails from my web server(such as junk) but allow the other emails to remain. Thanks a lot. I appreciate your helping me. -- Surendra Singhi www.public.asu.edu/~sksinghi/ "O thou my friend!
