Variable: gnus-save-killed-list

gnus-save-killed-list is a customizable variable defined in gnus-start.el.gz.

Value

t

Documentation

If non-nil, save the list of killed groups to the startup file.

If you set this variable to nil, you'll save both time (when starting and quitting) and space (both memory and disk), but it will also mean that Gnus has no record of which groups are new and which are old, so the automatic new newsgroups subscription methods become meaningless.

You should always set gnus-check-new-newsgroups to ask-server or nil if you set this variable to nil.

This variable can also be a regexp. In that case, all groups that do not match this regexp will be removed before saving the list.
