If I exit Emacs gracelessly while in the middle of composing a message
with Gnus, I end up with an autosave file in News/drafts/drafts,
called something like #5#.
But I can't for the life of me get at those files via nndrafts:drafts.
I've tried renaming that to 5 or even just to 1, and nndrafts:drafts
still claims to be empty whenever I try to read it.
Am I missing something, or is this just not possible? Admittedly,
it's not a big deal at all since I can always just start composing an
article again and then insert the contents of the auto-save file into
my buffer. But it just seems more Gnus-y to get at it via nndrafts.
I'm using Gnus 5.8.8 on XEmacs 21.4.6.

Isn't this my STOP?!
