Okay, now I'm stuck. I installed 22.1.1, and it came with Gnus v5.11. I copied over my .emacs and .gnus, but it stumbles on the (require 'gnus-load) in my .emacs. I can't tell if that's required or not, but it's certainly not there (at least a search doesn't reveal it). As best I can tell, gnus-load is created by make.bat, but the only make.bat I can find in my emacs 22 tree is for bbdb-2.34 (and I know I have to upgrade that -- one thing at a time). The fact I see lots of .elc files in the gnus directory indicates that gnus came pre- built, so I shouldn't have to do anything, right? I can start gnus by stepping through my .emacs, one command at a time and skipping the commands that don't work (e.g., (require 'gnus- load)), That gives me my nnmail-split customizations, for example. When I then start gnus,I get only a handful of my folders, populated with email I've received today. When I enter /o in my misc folder, it says there is no older email, yet I seem to see lots more files in the folder. That's okay (I hope); I figure gnus will reveal old emails when I resolve the gnus-load problem or whatever it is. It's a bit surprising that my drafts folder appears empty when looked at outside of Emacs, though; I don't know where my draft emails may have gone. Any tips for getting going? Is gnus-load obsolete in 5.11, or do I need to recreate it somehow?
