sample gnus.el file?

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1071 bytes --]

I'm hoping a number of people on the list would provide their gnus.el
file as a starting point for me.

Ultimately, I'm trying to get gnus working as my primary e-mail due to
the fact that I'm using emacs more and more as my "one stop shop" for
all I'm doing.

I'd ideally like to get the mail layout looking like I've got it in mutt
here[1].  So any pointers about getting a similar layout for message
view (same order of info, use of colors for messeges I tag as important,
easily seeing messages I've replied to or forwarded, etc.) as well as
message layout showing same headers, how to do coloring for reply depth,
etc).

Thanks very much for any and all responses!

Hi-

I *finally* got around to playing with this, but when I insert my
mail/news info at the top of the file and attempt to run gnus, I get
the error that gnus "cannot open load file".  Nothing specific about
*what* can't be loaded.

I commented out the 
(or (ivan-load "~/keep/conf/private.el")
line

What in the file could be causing gnus not to load?

Thanks.

Not for the faint of heart, 670 lines long:
http://karl.kleinpaste.org/gnus/.gnus.el
Some archived screenshots of what my Gnus looks like:
http://karl.kleinpaste.org/gnus/screenshots/
The screenshots are not terribly current (I long ago traded the
placement of Article and Tree) but still demonstrative.

Hi-

Same issue here in that I get the error
"Cannot open load file" when using this as my .gnus.el file with my
account and login credentials inserted (which work fine when used as a
stand-alone .gnus.el file).

As a new gnus user, what within the file might need to be parameterized
to my environment such that it's currently causing gnus not to load?

Thanks.

There's a reference to loading my password file in there.  Remove it.

Otherwise, comment out successfully larger chunks and restart Gnus until
you find out what section contains the offending content.

Blindly using my .gnus.el as your own is nearly certain to cause you
pain.  Treat it as a template or a model, borrowing from it just what
you find useful.
