There's a good chance that that message is in a separate group. Maybe you could set `gnus-refer-thread-use-search' to t and try again? That will create a search group holding all the messages in the thread, even if they're in separate groups now (assuming that search has been set up correctly). _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
