It turns out this is possible by setting 'gnus parameters': (setq gnus-parameters '((".*" (display . all)))) The 'all' in this case means that read ones are included (exactly what I wanted). I found out about this from the 'Limiting' section of the 'Summary Buffer' section of the info, which links to the 'Group Parameter' section of the 'Group Buffer' section. With this setting entering the group is kind of slow. Is there something else I can turn off to speed it up? Maybe I could mark most of them dormant and send them to a cache, but then it will probably get out of sync with slrnpull's cache which is where the articles are actually received from the net. If they are expired in the spool, will they expire in the gnus cache? I'll give it a try and report back here if everything goes well. > > - when writing to ~/.newsrc, could you inhibit it from > noting those Rs? -- "The world of existence is an emanation of the merciful attribute of God."
