Yes, you are right. I realized it myself shortly after. But there is another thing. For fetching "Author:" from the body, does it mean that Gnus has to scan through all the message bodies? To explain things a bit more, I subscribed to a trac project RSS changelog page. (The adm refuses to add a mailing list for recording changes) In Gnus, each RSS item(or article in Gnus) only contains a href "link". So to figure out author, I have to visit that "link" first, which could be a bit time consuming. -- William http://williamxu.net9.org
