Usually the biggest amount comes from the agent data (~/News/agent/).
AFAIK those date will be recreated without any loss.
The following stuff comes to my mind:
Not recreated:
- drafts, delayed and queued articles (`nndraft-directory')
- score files (`gnus-kill-files-directory')
- cached articles (`gnus-cache-directory')
Recreated:
- marks files (`nntp-marks-directory'); recreated from ~/.newsrc.eld
- agent data (`gnus-agent-directory'); recreated from the NNTP or IMAP
server?
I might be a good idea to extend this list and add it to the manual.
Bye, Reiner.
