Hmmm I am not sure where I got that variable from, I have tried a lot
of different ideas from info I found googling.

I have removed that line and replaced with :

   (setq gnus-select-method ' (nnspool ""))

 as shown in Gnus manual.... still doesn't work though  >:-)

Ah thank you, I didn't know about that. I will have another look at
leafnode and also have a look at the leafnode list.

I found a cached post somewhere (with google) that showed someone had
got slrnpull working O.K with Gnus... guess I am going to have to keep
digging and researching.  

I can use Gnus O.K on line and can post with it, now if I can just sort 
caching to spool   >:-)
