Yay!

First save with `s' so you have a "known good state".  Then enter a
group (that has some unread articles), mark everything as read (with
`d'), `q' out of the group and then `Q' out of Emacs.  You should now
have a dribble file.  Then say `M-x gnus' and answer `y' to the question
about whether to read it.

The group where you marked everything as read should now be displayed in
the group buffer with the same number of unread articles as it had
before you entered it the last time.
