Does the problem persists even after restarting Emacs? I face this issue with some IMAP servers but not always. This is could be due to unreliable network. Due to which the back-end process goes into stale state. > I have > > (setq gnus-select-method > '(nntp "nntp.aioe.org" > (nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-tls-stream) > (nntp-port-number 563))) > > (setq nntp-connection-timeout 240) I have just the below setting in my config. And it is working fine. (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "nntp.aioe.org")) ; news Could you please try removing the other params from your configuration if the previously mentioned restart also doesn’t fix the issue.

But I am just trying to pin-point the cause. _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
