It's a common "problem" with mailing lists: Some people reply both to the mailing list and directly to the person, some people only reply to the mailing list. The first strategy is useful if the person writing on the mailing list isn't subscribed to it. (I find that an odd thing to do, and with Gmane, where following a mailing list is very low friction, even more so). There are some headers you can set to indicate your preference, but not many email clients understand them. > 2. What is the difference between replying and forwarding in mailing > lists? I think you are thinking of R.eply and F.ollow up? For newsgroups (e.g. Gmane) R sends to the author only, and F sends to the group. (S W sends to both.) For email, you can think of R in Gnus as "Reply", and F as "Reply All". It's more complicated than that (of course, this is Emacs), but it's a reasonable first approximation. F and R quote the previous email, f and r don't. I usually want to follow up in the newsgroup, rather than replying only to the author, so to be reminded if I hit the wrong button, I've (asked around, and somebody provided this small snippet to) add to my ~/.gnus: ; Warn if replying from a newsgroup: (defadvice gnus-summary-reply (around asjo-reply-in-news activate) (interactive) (when (or (not (gnus-news-group-p gnus-newsgroup-name)) (y-or-n-p "Really reply? ")) ad-do-it)) which makes Gnus ask me if I really want to email the author instead of following up in the newsgroup, if I happen to.

I am using Gmail as the backend and received Dmitry Alexandrov's reply in my inbox, but for some reason your reply wasn't there. I am replying to you from the gmane group in gnus. 2. What is the difference between replying and forwarding in mailing lists? Should I be doing "F" or "R". They seems similar when the compose window is created, hence my confusion.

Welcome! > This is just a test email so that I can confirm things are setup as intended. You are posting via Gmane, are not you? Thatʼs sort of fine for that list (and any list on (non)gnu.org), but not for every one on the Net. Posting in a normal way — by mailing to a list address (here: info-gnus-english@gnu.org) via your mailserver (smtp.googlemail.com in your case) is generally more reliable. > Further, is there a guide I can read to learn more about how to use mailing > lists? Lots of such guides were accumulated over the Net for decades, but I do not know any, thatʼs worth reading. They commonly contain not very relevant info, that overwhelm the newcomer, often — local-specific and outdated info, and sometimes — simply bullshit. Basically, there is nothing to explain: mailing lists are supposed to be naturally familiar for anyone who is familiar with mail, that is simply to anyone. And despite all the joint efforts of some list-hosters, mail useragent designers and individuals to derail it, they are mostly indeed are. The only mistake UI designers succeeded to teach users, though, is to to command ‘Reply to sender only’ instead of ‘Reply to all’, which is of course is not what you want while discussing things publicly. Yet in too many MUAs the latter in too concealed. Gnus, of course, is not one those, so you are safe here. > There's a lot of terminology in the gnus documentation ‹…› Some of this can > be inferred from the documentation and context, but others are not so clear > to me.

That terminology comes from NNTP, which translated to today's terms (although it is still in use, by the way) would be the (roughly) equivalent of a forum read by "email". "Post" is still a post, a message like this one; "news" would be the whole forum, hosting "groups" — its channels, or mailing lists in email terms. -- Alberto ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
