However, this isn't working for me. When I fire up Gnus, it isn't moving any mail over to my 'nnfolder-directory'. Here is what I added to .gnus (setq nnmail-use-procmail t) (setq nnfolder-directory "~/gMail/") (setq nnmail-spool-file 'procmail) (setq nnmail-procmail-directory "~/incoming/lists/") (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnfolder ""))) (setq nnmail-procmail-suffix "") Procmail is adding incoming mail to ~/incoming/lists/listname. The nnfolder groups I subscribed to are named "nnfolder:lists.listname" Gnus does create the ~/gMail/lists directory with a zero lengh file in this directory for each list, but doesn't move any mail over and so it thinks I have "No more unread newsgroups". I'm using Gnus v5.4.40/XEmacs 19.15. What am I missing here? -- Jason R. Mastaler jason@mastaler.com
