Anyways, Emacs 23 can be setup so that Gnus reads and sends news to/from a spool directory with an external program ( in my case slrnpull ). But it can also handle mail and rss as if they were newsgroups. I found that putting this in my init file prevented it from doing the receiving of those automatically at start-up: (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml "") (nnrss ""))) But, it still asks me every time on startup if I want to fetch extra categories. Is there a way for it not to ask me this? (I don't even know what categories this is referring to). -- "The world of existence is an emanation of the merciful attribute of God."
