How do you mean its own list of groups?
I just rebooted my machine, fired up emacs with gnus and bam!
Half-a-dozen files were created in my home directory (INBOX.blah,
INBOX.blah1, etc). I deleted them, thinking gnus must have copied them
off the server, and lo and behold, I now no longer have these groups
either on locally or on the IMAP server...
God, I'm beginning to hate IMAP and gnus...
Why did I ever move away from pop3? <despairinghowl> I've wasted so
much time... <\despairinghowl>
