(which is my preferred view)

kill a (folded) thread ahead of a thread that is missing a base
article, so it's sparse.  your cursor will end up at the far right,
instead of on the left.

now kill *that* thread.  BOOM, you get shoved to the end of the buffer
and the error message above.

Before, you'd just get shoved into some weird buffer state that a ^A
would fix.  But at least you wouldn't lose context.

Re: GNUS hide group from *Group* buffer when there no unread messages...

2012-09-07 Thread Randal L. Schwartz
Is there a workaround for Hiding the thread moved us backwards,
aborting! bug in GNUS v5.13, or do I have to wait for an upgrade now?

Driving me nuts.

Re: Dovecot not liking .authinfo?

 This probably isn't a gnus problem, but I've used gnus with a lot of
 different IMAP servers and I've never had a problem with putting my
 credentials in ~/.authinfo.
 
 I'm trying out a dovecot imap server, and gnus simply will not
 authenticate to it with what's in ~/.authinfo.  It prompts me every
 time!  The perms are correct, and it works with other imap servers.
 I've looked at the dovecot.conf but nothing looks strange, and I'm
 pretty much using the debian defaults.

It's working just fine for me.  The problem with dovecot is that it's
hyper-configurable. :)  This is what I have in my .authinfo:

  machine smtp.example.com login merlyn password try_to_guess port imap
