OK. I went ahead and removed the Ubuntu 'gnus' package, and changed
to gnus-5.10.8 from the 'tar' file.
When I first started the newest version, it asked if I wanted to
convert my files to 5.10.8. After first backing up ;-), I said 'y'.
Everything seems OK except for one thing: many, many of my previous
read files showed up again as unread. Not sure why that happened ...
Might there be *other* conversion "issues" that haven't yet appeared?
Anyway, I'm going to go with this version for now. If I still have
problems, I'll post again.
Thanks for all the help,
-Kenneth
PS One other thing. I'm using emacs-21.4.1 ... is that fully
compatible with gnus-5.10.8?
