This is rather annoying, as I end up with lots of unread groups of messages I've already read :-) I'm using Gnus 5.9 and I had a look at the code and all `nnmail-expiry-target-group' does is ... (unless (eq target 'delete) (gnus-request-accept-article target nil nil t))) Which seems to explain what I've observed. Does anyone know of a way to have the expiry process preserve the original marks? Thanks, Mike
