Documentation

Non-nil means always update the saved "archive" method.

The archive method is initially set according to the value of gnus-message-archive-method and is saved in the "~/.newsrc.eld" file so that it may be used as a real method of the server which is named
"archive" ever since. If it once has been saved, it will never be
updated if the value of this variable is nil, even if you change the value of gnus-message-archive-method afterward. If you want the saved "archive" method to be updated whenever you change the value of gnus-message-archive-method, set this variable to a non-nil value.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 23.1.
