How about giving that old-school group a very low
priority, so it won't bother you? It'll still be there
if you need to go back and check:
gnus-group-set-current-level
Otherwise B-m, as said: gnus-summary-move-article
Also, how did those student mails get into one group?
Did you split it that way? If so, split it the other
way (to where you want it, now), and then use
`gnus-summary-respool-article': here is an example:
(defun respool-mail ()
(interactive)
(save-excursion
(let ((lines (count-lines (point-min) (point-max))))
(goto-char (point-min))
(gnus-summary-respool-article
lines
(gnus-find-method-for-group "nnml:mail.misc") ))))
There is also a more complicated, but persistent
solution that may not be what you want as you only want
to do this once - anyway, it is called "Virtual
Groups", basically defining one group to be the sum of
two (or more) groups. Look for it in the Gnus manual if
you feel brave.
But the way I would (not) do it, is to simply downgrade
the group so it won't bother you but will remain.
