This morning I got the Cyrus IMAP server working and mail is being delivered to it, and I thought it would be a good time to switch to Gnus for my client. So, I stuck this in my .gnus: (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnimap "dada" (nnimap-address "mercury") (nnimap-list-pattern ( "INBOX" . "*")) (nnimap-expunge-on-close ask)))) and fired up XEmacs and Gnus 5.8.7, was prompted for a username and password and...that's it, I can't find any nnimap newsgroups. Name completion only shows nndrafts under "nn*". I set the imap-log variable and I can see the trace of my server being connected to and logged in to, it all seems fine, I just don't see any messages. Probably, I just need a good swift kick to the head to the head, but right I can't see what I'm doing wrong. thanks, Eddie -- Eddie McCreary Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best mailto:beowulf@heorot.org friend.
