+@item The nntp back end store article marks in @file{~/News/marks}.
+The directory can be changed using the (customizable) variable
+@code{nntp-marks-directory}, and marks can be disabled using the
+(backend) variable @code{nntp-marks-is-evil}.  The advantage of this
+is that you can copy @file{~/News/marks} (using rsync, scp or
+whatever) to another Gnus installation, and it will realize what
+articles you have read and marked.  The data in @file{~/News/marks}
+has priority over the same data in @file{~/.newsrc.eld}.  This means
+that if you downgrade to, say, Gnus 5.10 and read mail and later come
+back to this Gnus version, your marks will be stale.  You can remove
+the @file{~/News/marks} content (even selectively) to remedy this.
