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. Thanks, David Carlton | carlton@math.stanford.edu | Go books: Isn't this my STOP?!
