Somehow gnus-options-subscribe and gnus-auto-subscribed-groups have precedence over gnus-options-not-subscribe. I reported that issue some time ago, but didn't get a response. >> The term "back end" does not denote a group, but a server where groups >> reside, in your case your local nnml server. > > I'm not sure why I need to specify this at all... It's a feature. ;-) Some people are not comfortable with some program creating new folders on their primary mail back end, so you can simply create another (nnml or nnmaildir) and let nnmairix use that one. Also, you can have several nnmairix servers (e.g. for current and archived mail, or for local and remote), and then you have to specify different back ends for them so they don't mess each other up. -David
