Yes, when I do that, all the messages in the group are shown. Pressing
`A-T' doesn't seem to do anything special later. Maybe I misunderstood
the command. I thought that I could recover only the rest of the posts
of the thread that I'm reading with `A-T' instead of seeing all of them
with a command like `/o' (gnus-summary-insert-old-articles).
