OK, I will reply to my own post here: I could not resist trying to debug this problem. It took two hours and I had to learn about stuff called Edebug and instrumenting functions for debugging in the process... :) It seems the root of the problem is when the mime content is to be rendered or washed. In my case links was called and it could not parse the HTML given. Hence the "Bad URL syntax" message, which was from links. I copied the file that could not be parse on Windows XP, to my GNU/Linux box at home and there "links -dump" could grok the content. Strange... Anyway, I wanted to solve it so I just tried to see if maybe lynx would work better. After a while of debugging I found the very interesting option `mm-text-html-renderer', which I could set to lynx instead of the default links. This solved my problem and I seem to now be able to also read HTML-postings in GNUS. Yay! /Mathias _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
