Still pounding nnimap and odd gmail behavior

Sorry to keep pounding on this same subject by being sneaky and
slipping the same question with different subject.

I did not get any help I could use from previous post so here goes
again with an update of sorts, although it still acts the same as
reported earlier.

I've used a specific gmail account and have it incorporated into
gnus.  Been so for a few yrs. (called acc1 onward)

I recently added a new account (called acc2 onward)

So I incorporate acc2 into gnus with this in .gnus:

<Note that names and passwords obfuscated to simplify reading>

-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      -------- 
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '((nnml ""))) 

(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "acc1"
                                  (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")))

(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
                 	     '(nnimap "acc2"
 		              (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")))

<Note that the accs do have different names and passwds>
-------        ---------       ---=---       ---------      --------

pgpmime signature token at beginning of reply?


Hi

I am using 

,----
| (add-hook 'message-setup-hook 'mml-secure-message-sign-pgpmime)
`----

to sign my messages, but when I reply to a message (F), the signature
token <#secure method=pgpmime mode=sign> is inserted at the end of the
email, although I reply in emails inline o=r before the email (most
people prefer to tread backwards....).

Is there a way to automatically insert the token at the beginning of the
mail?

Thanks,

Rainer

[nnimap gmail] confused by phenomena

I've been reading some gmail imap groups for a yr or so.  
Yesterday I added a new one.  Today the new groups showed up but they
contain all the mail of the wrong account.

From ~/.gnu:

<This one has been in use for a year>
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "hputnam3"
                                  (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")))

<this one was added yesterday>
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
                       '(nnimap "harrygp3"
                    (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")))

The accounts have different names and different passwords.  They are
listed in .authinfo like so:

(passwords obfuscated)

machine imap.gmail.com login hputnam3 <at> gmail.com password xxxxxxxx port imap
machine imap.gmail.com login harrygp3 <at> gmail.com password xxxxxxxx port imap

When I ran gnus, it had pickup all of hputnam3 imap mail and placed
it in groups named harrygp3.  In other words it had retrieved all the
wrong mail for the newly added imap account.

I noticed that the passwords while different were only different by
case. (PAssword and password), so I thought that might be the
reason.

nnimap group gets stuck "offline"

Hello,

recently (last few weeks but increasingly so) I find that I cannot open
my main email account (via IMAP to Microsoft Live <at> edu
server).  Initially, more often than not, it simply fails.  If I go to
the server buffer, it is indicated as offline.  I can go to the line and
hit O.  If I try this repeatedly, eventually the server goes "online"
but this can take a very long time.

Once it's online, everything is fine, although the server connection is
lost frequently and has to be regained but that usually works okay.

I'm using gnus up to date as of yesterday from git.

How can I debug this initial offline/online behaviour?  I have no
problems with IMAP access to gmail and NNTP access to gwene, gmane,
etc.

Thanks,
eric

Definition of Archive group

Hi

I would like to set my archive group as follow:

1) if the mail is an email, I want a copy in the group from which I send
(i.e. gcc-self . t) but when I send via a newsgroup, I want to puyt a
copy into a specific group (i.e. "nnimap+Maildir:Sent"). But the
following does not work:

,----
|  (setq gnus-message-archive-group
|          '((if (message-news-p)
|                "nnimap+Maildir:Sent"
|              t)))
`----

How can I achieve the above mentioned goal?

Thanks,

Rainer

virtual groups - some questions

Hi

I started using virtual groups, and I have some question which I did not
find an answer to:

I created the virtual group via G V and added groups via G v - this
worked fine, but I got lost and did not remember which groups I already
added. Therefore:

1) How can I view the groups added to a virtual group?
2) how can I remove groups from a virtual group?

I usually prefer to have everything in one config file - 

3) how can I define a virtual group in the config file gnus.el?

Thanks,

Rainer

P.S:
gnus is getting better and better for me.... Thanks.

"browse the repository" link: web site vs. Gnus source

http://gnus.org/resources.html has this bullet under "Development":

* Development takes place in git, and you can browse the repository. 

The "browse the repository" link takes me to
http://git.gnus.org/cgit/gnus-html.git/.  Shouldn't that be
http://git.gnus.org/cgit/gnus.git/ instead?

cheers,
mike

XEmacs builds failing - gnus-spec.el

  Hi.

It looks like the XEmacs runs on the buildbot:

 * http://www.randomsample.de:4456/waterfall

have been failing since a21954c3 "Prefer UTF-8 when the encoding
shouldn't matter and changes are small".

The 21.5 build fails with:

    Compiling /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/debian/build-xemacs21.5/build/lisp/gnus-spec.el...
    While compiling gnus-parse-complex-format in file /var/lib/buildbot/slaves/debian/build-xemacs21.5/build/lisp/gnus-spec.el:
      !! error (("reference to free variable �"))

while the 21.4 compile times out after 1200 seconds, ending with:

    Generating autoloads for lisp/gnus-spec.el...
    command timed out: 1200 seconds without output, attempting to kill
    process killed by signal 9

The commit looks quite innocent:

 * http://git.gnus.org/cgit/gnus.git/diff/lisp/gnus-spec.el?id=a21954c3

I have tried reproducing the problem with the XEmacs 21.5 I happen to
have installed (XEmacs 21.5  (beta31) "ginger" 10f179710250+), but I
don't seem to be able to.

Any ideas?

problem with an imap folder (gmail label) and article counts

I use nnimap to read mail from gmail.  When I try enter one group, I'm
prompted with the message "How many articles from blah (574 available,
default 200): ".  However, when I hit enter I'm told "No unread news".
If I don't accept the default of 200, but put 574 it will give me a list
of articles, although it's not 574, it's 121, the number Gmail reports
through the web interface.  How can I diagnose this problem?  Moreover,
the message counts reported when I try to enter a group often don't
match the summary buffer or what the Gmail web interface reports.  Is
there a solution to this?

digest format used by google groups

Hello

I am subscribed to a mailing list (about pandoc) which uses googlegroups,
however the digest format used by google cannot be opened by gnus the
way other digest format are opened (via C-d).
Are there plans to support this format?

thanks

several issues with non ascii characters in group names

(there was an encoding problem with the previous message, here again
with the right encoding)

Hi,

Sometimes, I use accented characters in group names. There are several
problems with such groups:

1.) No completion on Gcc: line in message buffer

For example, if I type "Gcc: st" and then press the TAB key, I get this
completion buffer:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Possible completions are:
steph
st\303\251phane
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

But it should be "steph" and "stéphane".

And there is no completion, when typing "sté" and then TAB.

2.) Several entries in server buffer for the same group

For the group "stéphane" for example, I have these lines in the server
buffer:

U      8: stéphane
U      1: stéphane
