My primary gnus-select-method was nnnil so I needed to set it back to
(nntp "news") so to do that, but yes it works, and indeed, it is in a
very poor state.  Way worse than I thought, and also way worse than
here: all threads, even with sorting by date activated, are all garbled,
because some times faked root are considered to be back from EPOCH!

I’ll send that mail.
