Good!,  I  didn't know  about  this feature...    The  bad point about
extensible  systems  is  that you never    know how far    it has gone
already. :-)

Anyway,  this does  not  solve  the other  problem  I  mentioned in my
previous  post: I  can't  keep  vm  nor gnus   "on-line", reading  and
processing  my mail box,  so  that I  don't have to  wait some minutes
before I can read my mailbox...
