Re: cannot start Gnus with idna.el

Thank you for the comment.

After "make maintainer-clean" in emacs/lisp directory, I successfully
bootstrapped the latest emacs. And then I'm trying this problem again.

Using CC while using Gmane

Hi,

I use mailing lists through Gmane NNTP gateway.  Some times I would like
to reply (follow up) and at the same time CC the author through SMTP.

Can someone tell me which is the natural way to go about this.

	Thomas

I think the following message should answer you question.

This implies that Gnus will use the SMTP transport too if a Cc or To
header is present in the message.

You will be the test ;)

Re: Small change to message-tab to allow completion of mail aliases

sure -- attached.  Sorry for delay; it only handles the Emacs case, I'm
sorry that I can't help with XEmacs, but it looks like only mailabbrev
is supported anyway currently within GNUS.

What does gnus-group-get-new-news do with arg=nil?

I tried to figure out what gnus-group-get-new-news actually does without
further arguments and with permanent levels unset, and I simply don't
get it. Please also note that the doc-string carefully avoids this
question. My impression was that gnus-activate-level would be used, but
it doesn't seem to be that easy.

The question boils down to what gnus-get-unread-articles does without
arguments, i.e. level=nil. What I'd like in this case is that every
group with a level greater than gnus-activate-level should be completely
ignored, but this doesn't happen. If level is nil, 'active' is never set
to 'ignore in the following code:

(if (and level
       ;; If `active' is nil that means the group has
       ;; never been read, the group should be marked
       ;; as having never been checked (see below).
       active
       (> (gnus-info-level info) level))
   ;; Don't check groups of which levels are higher
   ;; than the one that a user specified.
   (setq active 'ignore))))

Therefore, later in the code, gnus-get-unread-articles-in-group is
called, even for foreign groups with a level greater than gnus-activate-group:

(cond
   ((eq active 'ignore)
    ;; Don't do anything.
    )
    (active

For me it still happens with today's CVS (and XEmacs 21.4.21).

No, at least for me.  I get exactly the same behavior:

  Deleting article /home/mxp/News/drafts/queue/1 in nndraft:drafts...
  Sending...done
  Wrote /home/mxp/Mail/archive/sent-mail/2008-06

Oops!  I could reproduce it today with XEmacs and even with Emacs.
(What did I miss last week?)  Anyway now I believe there is
something wrong in Gnus.  I'll investigate it before very long...

So do I :-)  The problem appeared shortly before the No Gnus v0.10
release.  So I'm still using an earlier version.

Thank you very much!

How short before?  Does it appear in No Gnus 0.8?  Could you pin-point
it to a particular date (by trying cvs co -D DATE ...)?

Bye, Reiner.
