Check your setting for gnus-read-active-file. *Non-nil means that Gnus will read the entire active file at startup. If this variable is nil, Gnus will only know about the groups in your `.newsrc' file. You probably want 'nil' or 'some'. -- Bud Rogers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.sirinet.net/~budr/zamm.html All things in moderation. And not too much moderation either.
