Hello,
I've recently got a new machine, installed debian, emacs and gnus. My
ISP does not provide a news server, so I was trying out different free
ones. Now I've found one that I like, and I think I'm set. However,
during this testing period, I've created lots of silly groups, etc.,
and I would just like to clean it all up, customize some gnus
variables, and restart gnus as if it were the first time. What would
be the simplest and/or cleanest way of doing this?
Thanks,
cyp

If you are absolutely sure that you don't need any data from your
previous Gnus experiments and that no other MUA has stored data in
~/Mail, you can do:
$ rm -r ~/Mail ~/News .newsrc*
Bye, Reiner.
