Reiner, first, I thank you for the tutorial url, though which I am now
struggling to get through,
having earlier worked through other pages. Please note I was *not*
relying on "random
private web pages" for anything other than quoting him saying he, too,
was not
able to get enough information from
http://gnus.org/manual.html...luckly, again, I'm not
trying to follow the tutorial url instead, though looks like I will
still need to post a followup question
or two here after reading it..

As for the faq.org yes, that is clearly out of date...perhaps someone
can request they
either update or remove the out-dated gnus faq from their site? google
gives
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/emacs-faq.text as second hit for
"gnus faq" while
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/gnus-faq/ still comes out at #1, alas..
