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.

Could you elaborate on this?

See the first suggestion. 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.

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
