When I get to Gnus's Groups buffer after launching Gnus and it does the select and split processes, the mailboxes are visible just like all the NNTP newsgroups I am subscribed to. As far as I can tell, this is the default behavior. > Do you use topic- or group-parameters? No, other than what you see in the split rules. I don't know how to use those things and this works well enough for my needs. > What did you set the variables > gnus-check-new-newsgroups > gnus-subscribe-newsgroup-method I didn't. They are whatever is the default- I like to keep it as simple as I can, to match my rather simple knowledge of Lisp, Emacs and Gnus. What Gnus are you using and which backend for mail? I am using 5.10.6 and nnml.
