You can also make Gnus prompt you interactively for the name of an
@sc{nntp} server. If you give a non-numerical prefix to @code{gnus}
(i.e., @kbd{C-u M-x gnus}), Gnus will let you choose between the servers
in the @code{gnus-secondary-servers} list (if any). You can also just
-type in the name of any server you feel like visiting.
+type in the name of any server you feel like visiting. (Note that this
+will set @code{gnus-nntp-server}, which means that if you then @kbd{M-x
+gnus} later in the same Emacs session, Gnus will contact the same
+server.)

-When you perform this command on a group, you'll enter the group, as
-usual. When done on a topic line, the topic will be folded (if it was
-visible) or unfolded (if it was folded already). So it's basically a

-prefix, group on that level (and lower) will be displayed.

+Now, this is mostly useful for mail groups, where you have control over
+the @sc{nov} files that are created. However, if you can persuade your
+nntp admin to add:
+
+@example
+Newsgroups:full
+@end example
+
+to the end of her @file{overview.fmt} file, then you can use that just
+as you would the extra headers from the mail groups.

+@vindex gnus-unbuttonized-mime-types
+This is a list of regexps. @sc{mime} types that match a regexp from
+this list won't have @sc{mime} buttons inserted unless they aren't
+displayed. The default value is @code{(".*/.*")}.
+
+@item gnus-article-mime-part-function
+@vindex gnus-article-mime-part-function
+For each @sc{mime} part, this function will be called with the @sc{mime}
+handle as the parameter. The function is meant to be used to allow
+users to gather information from the article (e. g., add Vcard info to
+the bbdb database) or to do actions based on parts (e. g., automatically
+save all jpegs into some directory).
+
+Here's an example function the does the latter:
+
+@lisp
+(defun my-save-all-jpeg-parts (handle)
+ (when (equal (car (mm-handle-type handle)) "image/jpeg")
+ (with-temp-buffer

Most people make most of their mail groups total-expirable, though.
+@vindex gnus-inhibit-user-auto-expire
+If @code{gnus-inhibit-user-auto-expire} is non-@code{nil}, user marking
+commands will not mark an article as expirable, even if the group has
+auto-expire turned on.

@node Washing Mail
@subsection Washing Mail
All files that match this regexp will be ignored. Nice to use to exclude
auto-save files and the like, which is what it does by default.
+@item nneething-include-files
