This worked for me for the last 7 years, so rather belated thanks for
that.
However, after updating to Emacs 29.1, I started getting an error
message about 'group' being undefined.
I solved the problem by not trying to set 'gnus-message-archive-group'
at all and instead now set "Gcc" via 'gnus-alias', which I was already
using:
(setq gnus-alias-identity-alist
'(("gmail"
""
"\"Loris Bennett\" <loris.benn...@gmail.com>"
"Berlin"
(("Reply-To" . "loris.benn...@gmail.com")
("Gcc" . "nnimap+gmail:Sent Mail")
("X-Message-SMTP-Method" . "smtp smtp.gmail.com 587"))
""
lb/gmail-sig)
...
))
I am not sure whether it is related to the Emacs update, but I also
found that I could no longer send email from one account via the SMTP
server of another account. Therefore I added the
"X-Message-SMTP-Method" to the list of extra headers, which solved the
issue.
Maybe someone else might find the above useful.
Cheers,
Loris
