Article: Toggle headers visibility

I'm trying to get the headers not to show (none of them). This I
managed to do with the call below marked with [1]. (The code is pasted
last.)

But, sometimes I need the data in the headers:

1) Are those stored in local variables? If so, that would be easier,
to write access defuns like `kill-article-author' and the like.

2) If not, I'd like to strike a command, view the headers (some of
them), move point (etc.), and get them.

So I wrote the defun at [2]. That actually works, only I have to read
the article again manually from the summary - is there a way to do it
programatically, like `gnus-article-redraw' or something?

But, once I've done that, I try to hide the headers again. But, then,
the defun at [3] won't have any affect (or rather, the highlight of
the From header face changes - ? - that's all). But, didn't it work
the first time around?

I'm pretty confused by this, so any explanations would be great. If
you have another solution to this problem, I'd be happy to read that,
as well. Cheers.

The code:

;;; headers
;; won't work the second time - [3]
(defun gnus-article-hide-headers ()

Posting to usenet via gnus

I run Emacs 23.3.1 with Gnus 5.13 under various Debian-based distributions,
which I have configured to read news from Gmane. However, I post via the
Gmane website. What is the best way to post directly from within Emacs? I've
searched for a solution, but have not found one yet. Do I need to subscribe
to each group and suppress mail delivery (I'm accessing via Gmane). Any
guidance would be appreciated.

allow catch up for groups with flagged messages

Is there a configuration option to do this?  By default, if there is a
flagged message you can only see that message in the group and the group
will always show up in the *Group* buffer.

Is explicit inhibition of authentication supported now?

Hi,

Some time ago I was told that upon connecting a NNTP server the
authinfo file is always read, so as not to miss any lines with
`force' for the server.  But it causes inconvenience when my
authinfo file is encrypted.

So I came again to ask, can I now inhibit reading of
authentication information for a specific server?  If not, I'm
seriously requesting this feature.  I do have some sort of GPG
agent running, but I think it better to give this option.

new user; imap/gmail slowness

Hi;

I just started playing with gnus in the last few days (Gnus v5.13 inside
GNU Emacs 24.3.1 on FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE).  It's really nice to have
mailing lists and rss feeds all within Emacs.  The learning curve is a
little steep, but so far so good.

I've managed to get set my gmail account up, but the speeds are quite
slow and I assume I'm doing something foolish.  This is what I have in
~/.gnus.

(setq gnus-select-method '(nnnil))
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nntp "news.gmane.org")))
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "gmail"
						     (nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
						     (nnimap-server-port 993)
						     (nnimap-stream ssl)
						     (nnir-search-engine imap)
						     (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.authinfo.gpg")
						     (nnmail-expiry-target "nnimap+gmail:[Gmail]/Trash")
						     (nnmail-expiry-wait 90)))
(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
      smtpmail-starttls-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 nil nil))
      smtpmail-auth-credentials '(("smtp.gmail.com" 587 "jrm <at> ftfl.ca" nil))
      smtpmail-default-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
      smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.gmail.com"
      smtpmail-smtp-service 587
      smtpmail-local-domain "ftfl.ca")

The slow parts are when I hit 'G' in the *Group* buffer.  It can take

Gcc is ignored when sending mail from emacs lisp

Hello,

I want to sent mail from emacs lisp code, but the given Gcc-field is not
considered by the send function and thus no mail is put into my "Sent
Items" Group/Folder.  When I send a mail from within gnus, everything
works out fine.  This is the relevant code:

Sending mail from outside gnus:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun org-tut-send-mail ()
  (message-mail "my.email <at> foo.com"
                "[ELISP-TEST] Test"
                '(("From" . "my.email <at> foo.com")
                  ("Gcc" . "nnimap+imap.server.com:\"Sent Items\"")))
  (insert "SOME TEXT")
  (message-send-and-exit))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The above snippet sends the Email just fine, but nothing gets stored in
my Sent Items group.

Can anybody give me some pointers on this?

PS: If you need further information, name it and I will gladly provide
it.

Regards,
Alex

emacs crashes frequently when adding attachment

Hi

I am using emacs 24.2.1 and the gnus included under Ubuntu raring
ringtail, and I experience regular crashes when adding an attachment.

With crash I mean: the emacs windows closes, and emacs is running in the
background and using between 50% and 100% of processor resources.

Any idea or pointers what could cause this behavior? It is quite
annoying, as I have to send emails with attachments via gmail.

Cheers,

Rainer

Always wide-reply in some newsgroups

Hi all,

is there a trick to make Gnus always doing wide replies in some
newsgroups, also if I press `F' / `f'?

The background: I read some bug lists such as

  nntp+Gmane:gmane.emacs.auctex.bugs
  nntp+Gmane:gmane.emacs.bugs

via Gmane.  My muscle memory is wired to `F' for replying to some
article.  However, following-up on an article will make my reply appear
on the bug list, but most probably the reporter of that bug isn't
subscribed to the list and thus won't see my reply.

Bye,
Tassilo

"cut here" (and message formatting in general)

Hi,

Reading a newsgroup recently in Gnus I found a message which had code
nicely highlighted in the Emacs buffer.  Looking at the raw message
source I found something like

--8<---------------cut here---------

around the code.

I was not aware of this possibility, so now I am interested in the
following:

1. What's the "standard" format for this, or at least the format
recognized by Gnus?

2. Is there an emacs function or some other shortcut to enter it?

3. Is there a list of similar constructs that Gnus would recognize (I am
aware of *bold*, _underline_ and /italic/, but I am interested in what I
am missing).  If there is no user-friendly list I am happy to look at EL
sources, but some directions would be useful.

Best,

Tamas

Kill certain articles in certain groups all from gnus.el

Gentlemen, I wish to
Kill (so I don't see them) all articles
that match Subject: /xxx/
whose group name matches: /yyy/
and have this all contained within my .gnus.el file for easy maintenance.

I don't want to have 15 identical files one for each group.

I don't want a global kill string that matches every group.

I don't want this stuck in some binary .eld file that I have to fight with gnus about who gets to edit it.

gnus registry issues

Hi,

Versions:
GNU Emacs 24.3.1
Gnus v5.13

I have configured registry with the following:

,----
| (require 'gnus-registry)
| (setq gnus-registry-max-entries 500000)
| (gnus-registry-initialize)
| (setq gnus-registry-track-extra '(sender subject))
| (defalias 'gnus-user-format-function-M 'gnus-registry-article-marks-to-chars)
`----
I also modified the summaryline to include %uM

However when I try to set a Mark on a mail (nnimap) I always get
,----
| Removing mark nil with message ID
<8AC5BD2CFB39B248AFD9196071C52E2C01672F8C <at> xmb-aln-x03.cisco.com>, resulting in nil
| Marks are nil
`----

No marks are set. 

Thanks,
Prateek
