Try customising it appropriately. Gnus kind of does > its own thing .... Thanks for your answer, Richard. Yes, I meant gnus-init-file :). I also tried (setq gnus-init-fine "~/Dropbox/gnus/.gnus"). But then Gnus starts downloading the list of newsgroups in the server, presumably because it cannot find the other files where the suscribed groups are indicated. I guess I could set some other variables and make it work somehow, but I would always live in fear that there is still some other variable that has to be tweaked and my setup would end up in a mess.. Besides, as I mentioned, org 7.3 works just fine, but I would like to try the latest and greatest features mentioned in this list. >> this variable points to ~/.gnus, which does not exist in my setup. This >> is Gnus 5.13. However, I do not have any problems with org 7.3.
