Just tested it and it's the same whether I type `n' or `y'! I'm getting
more and more of the same draft.

Just in case, forgot to mention that when starting Gnus and it's asking
me about "auto-save file exists" I always type yes. (I tend to forget
closing down Gnus before shutting down Emacs.)

Thank you
