Maybe I'm misunderstanding (not deliberately, I assure you) what you mean but it's certainly not lost: the link continues to work, even if it points to a read article; and visiting the group with C-u <SPACE> in gnus also allows you to see previously read articles. It's only expired articles that can never be gotten back after their expiration period runs out. But maybe that's what you are alluding to when you say "visiting the group in a regular way"? Nick
