They should be still there, try `Y c' in the summary buffer, see (info "(gnus) Summary Generation Commands") > How I keep certain articles in the group without it ever expiring > unless I mark it for deletion or delete it. Change the value of gnus-use-cache from `passive' to some other non-nil value. You can then mark those articles as `ticked' or `dormant' and that will automatically mark them as persistent as well. See (info "(gnus) Article Caching") and (info "(gnus) Unread Articles"). Alternatively (well, even at the same time...) you could agentize the server in question and then you don't need any of the stuff described above since, by default, the agent doesn't expire ticked articles in its own cache (which is different from the cache described above).
