(To get to the *Server* buffer hit ^ in *Group*.) The state is as follows: > {nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened) (agent) (I had to add an agent in the *Server* buffer after adding the server name itself in the *Server* buffer; specifying it in my ~/.gnus.el file was insufficient.) However, when I run the "Describe all groups..." command, for some reason, I do not see the gnus.gnus-bug newsgroup (to which I have subscribed) listed after the news.gnus.org server, where it should be. However, I see one blank line listed after that server (after the colon (':') character), and a number of other newsgroups listed after that server on different lines, as well as such newsgroups as gmane.comp.lang.haskell.cafe listed after their other respective servers (news.gmane.org, in this case). Why doesn't gnus.gnus-bug appear in this list? Bye, Benjamin -- Benjamin L.
