I really would recommend losing all your settings and just start with epa. Since its all fairly new it would not be such a loss and then you can bring them back in one at a time if you feel them necessary. Some of them look rather confused anyway (although I might well be mistaken) .. e.g I didnt see stuff like this really before: > ;; Display the Date in UT (GMT) > gnus-treat-date-ut nil > ;; Display the Date in the local timezone > gnus-treat-date-local nil > ;; Display the date in the original timezone > gnus-treat-date-original nil Why all 3 to nil? What are the defaults? Here they are nil. > >> I'm confused as to why you seem so reluctant to use >> epa as suggested by 2 or 3 different people. > Sorry if that is what my attitude looks like.

I had similar issues a couple of years ago and it certainly is not clear what should be used at times. Go with epa and see how you get on.
