View seen articles in summary
Hi everyone ; I'm getting up to speed with gnus and I really like to be able to format and mail any piece of text. But there is one thing that I can't seem to understand : How to make the (imap folders) summary display, well, *all* articles exept those that I explicitely delete of flag otherwise ? The articles are here, they exist, I can search them using nnir, and they magically re-appear, bit how can I make them stay there ? Couple of additionnal noob questions : -How to make the mail fields (To:, Subject:, etc.) read-only ? -How to set the default number of displayed (nntp) articles, say to 200 ?

Where do seen articles go ?

In the Group Buffer, against a group, hit ' G P' and enter the following ((display . 100)) and then hit C-c C-c. Now enter the group, you should see the last 100 articles; the number can be changed to suit your taste. You may also want to read up on 'Group Parameters' in the info file. > > Couple of additionnal noob questions : > -How to make the mail fields (To:, Subject:, etc.) read-only ?

It may be a good idea to do it in the .gnus file by doing something like this ("mail\\.misc" (visible . t) (display . all) (posting-style (address "nsivar@gmail.com") (name "Sivaram Neelakantan") (body "\n\n sivaram\n -- \n") (user-mail-address "nsivar@gmail.com"))) on a per group basis. See also Posting Styles documentation. sivaram -- ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

SO I figured how to do this, but most of the solution is outside Gnus: 1. I installed postnews - a silly little script that posts an article to a nntp server, like rnewspost of yore. 2. In the relevant groups, I set both to-list and to-address to something like: myname+alt.t...@my.mail.host 3. I match these addresses with my mailbox sorter (ie. the equivalent of procmail), remove mail-like headers (To and Received), append a Newsgroups header based on the + bit, and feed the result to postnews. Took me a day to set this up. Boo. ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
