Here's my nnimap entries in gnus-secondary-select-methods ,---- | (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods | '(nnimap "imapserver" | (nnimap-address "imapserver.eng.sun.com") | (nnimap-list-pattern '("INBOX" ("Mail/nnimap/" . "*"))) | (nnimap-username tonyl) | )) | | (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods | '(nnimap "" | (nnimap-address "imapserver.eng.sun.com") | (nnimap-list-pattern '("INBOX" ("Mail/nnimap/" . "*"))) | (nnimap-username tonyl) | )) `---- * they're both actually pointing to the same imap server, but I got "server denied" for the 2nd entry (nnimap "" ...), so I have to use the first one which resulting long group names "nnimap+imapserver:Mail/nnimap/..." instead of "nnimap:Mail/nnimap/.." that I like. * nnimap-list-pattern in the above entries doesn't seem to be used, I have to set a global one outside select-method to make nnimap use it. * nnimap-username is not used regardless it's being set inside the select-method or globally. Are they the way supposed to work and there's something I missed? TIA. -- Tony
