|      Currently supported types are `mbox', `babyl', `digest', `news',
|      `rnews', `mmdf', `forward', `rfc934', `rfc822-forward',
|      `mime-parts', `standard-digest', `slack-digest', `clari-briefs',
|      `nsmail', `outlook', `oe-dbx', and `mailman'.  If you run this
|      command without a prefix, Gnus will guess at the file type.  *Note

For more information, see (info "(gnus)Document Groups") and
(info "(gnus)Document Server Internals").

If you had to provide your own type, it would be nice if you could
contribute it to Gnus.

Bye, Reiner.
