        Thanks  for your  help so  far, but  when I  tried  using your
configuration I got told that Gnus couldn't open my dir when I cut and
pasted  your code  and changed  the directory.   I'm curious,  are you
having  fetchmail  grab  your  mail  for  you  and  spooling  it  into
/home/kobit/mail, or are  you having Gnus fetch it?  Is  there a way I
can tell Gnus that I'm creating a directory and I want to format it as
nnmail?

Many thanks,

Dan
