I don't either ;-)

The group I'm talking of is the one which contains all the
*received and sent* mails from/to my colleagues, over the
4 years and a half I'm using Gnus.
So, yes:
o I apply automatic splitting to my incoming mails, so
that it gets sorted by (groups of) emitters: family,
friends, colleagues, ...
o and I always GCc to the corresponding group - when
answering -, so that the threading of my conversations
works nicely.
This explains that, in particular, my "work" group is getting
big, with ~ 17.000 mails.
Applying the above described method for automatically marking my
answers as read mails is incredibly slow for that one group (one
minute, or more); though, it was OK for smaller groups.
Best regards,
Seb
