Re: how to get confirmation that mail was sent correctly
Guenter Wolpert [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hello, I'm using GNUS 5.9.0 for reading news and (mainly) for my e-mail. The mail system uses a POP server that used to be a dial-up conenction, no its a DSL router. What I'm currently missing is a feature to a) cause an acknowledgement when the mail was read by the recipient Is this what you're looking for? In a mail buffer, in the header lines if you --8---cut here---start-8--- C-c M-n runs the command message-insert-disposition-notification-to which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `message.el'. It is bound to C-c M-n, menu-bar Field Request Receipt. (message-insert-disposition-notification-to) Request a disposition notification (return receipt) to this message. Note that this should not be used in newsgroups. --8---cut here---end---8--- b) trace the mail as it is transferred from server to server. Both features are available in usual mail programs and I guess, GNUS can do also. Please, can you explain this a little more? I was under the impression the mail one *receives* has the path traversal in the headers. One more thing: Receiving a lot of spam, including completely empty mails, I wonder, whether GNUS responds to the above mentioned (a) acknowledge feature and how I can control this. No idea here.

Newbies questions
Here are some newbies questions about Gnus: * How I can receive messages each X time? * It's possible that Gnus play a sound with a mail arrive? * How I can send a new message in some newsgroup?

Gnus choosing to render text/html part of message
Hello. With gnus-ignored-mime-types set to text/html, the article buffer is still rendering the html part instead of text/plain part of messages with the 2 mime alternates. If there's a setting to make text/plain be preferred, I've not discovered it yet.

Fixed
Well, I have fixed the problem without really knowing what caused it. I shut down gnus and emacs, deleted everything in ~/gnus, and started up again. Now everything works as expected (so far).

I've been using those capabilities for a decade or more. Did you restart Gnus, in order that .gnus.el would be re-evaluated? If you did restart Gnus, what happened after 5min? There won't be any big announcement by Gnus -- it will just abruptly go off to check for mail without any advance confirmation or preparation. I know what is the problem, is needed initialize gnus-demon-init manually, I dont know why manually, so I have this in my .emacs but doesnt work (setq gnus-use-demon t) (gnus-demon-init) (gnus-compile) if I initialize manually ( M-x gnus-demon-init RET ) all works OK. :-/ help ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

someusernamehere [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Thanks, but, where I define theses levels (2 and 3) for mail and news? The last time you asked questions, I told you about level assignments for groups. Use `S l' in *Group* to define the level number of your groups. Put mail groups on level 1 or 2. (I use 1 for personal [therefore important] mail groups, and 2 for mailing lists and so forth.) Default level for newly-subscribed groups is 3, I believe. Every time I respond to questions such as yours, I pepper my response heavily with references to the manual. Use those references. It's fine to ask questions; it's not fine to ask questions whose answers you've already got, if only you'll look around yourself for them. When you find a concept referenced that you don't immediately recognize, at least look through the manual's index for it. info://Gnus/Group+Levels ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

Two accounts on the same IMAP server
Dear all, Now I run into a problem as I was given a second account on a imap server. They serve different purposes so that forward emails from one to another is not desirable. Now If I send an email when in nnimap+Account2, it fails with error: , | 550 Sender address user2 does not match authenticated user user1 ` Any ideas? Or is this a bug? My config is as follows: (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp news.gmane.org) gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml ) (nnimap Account1 (nnimap-server-address imap.example.com) (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnir-search-engine imap)) (nnimap Account2 (nnimap-server-address imap.example.com) (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnir-search-engine imap (setq gnus-posting-styles '((^nnimap\\+Account1 (name User1) (address [EMAIL PROTECTED])) (^nnimap\\+Account2 (name User2) (address [EMAIL PROTECTED] ,[ .authinfo ] | machine Account1 login user1 password x | machine hermes login user2 password x | machine smtp.example.com login user1 password x ` -- Leo sdl.web AT gmail.com (GPG Key: 9283AA3F) ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
