Yeah but a lot of the infos is stored in the
_newsrc.news.my.provider.eld_, a file I never paid close attention when
I was looking for the custom settings. In any case now it really back
to normal ( at least with Gnus) but I can't get XEmacs running on this
machine, ( and even in Debian stable it seems the package is broken, a
attemt to configure a new one failed miserably ....) 

And in this X-environment I don't get the key to produce "@" ....sorry 
If I bothered you with this _non_ gnus problems...

Thanks for your help nontheless :-) 

 
Josef Oswald also -> gnus@chello.at  :-)
