##### 6.8.2.4 Diary Group Parameters

When you create a new diary group, or visit one, `gnus-diary` automatically checks your group parameters and if needed, sets the summary line format to the diary-specific value, installs the diary-specific sorting functions, and also adds the different `X-Diary-*` headers to the group's posting-style. It is then easier to send a diary message, because if you use `C-u a` or `C-u m` on a diary group to prepare a message, these headers will be inserted automatically (although not filled with proper values yet).
