Well, that's OK for gnus-suppress-duplicates. But
gnus-save-duplicate-list seems to be taken into account only when you
leave Gnus. So I don't know how to set it locally (but this might be
simply because I don't know Gnus in detail).

That's why I thought we could add a user option debbugs-lars-workflow or
alike :-) If non-nil, the gnus-* variables would be set as of today.

Best regards, Michael.
