I'm using XEmacs 21.1 with Gnus 5.8.3 and some fancy toolbar icons. And guess what, one strange situation after the other. With the above combination nothing (exept news ofcourse) seems to work. So I remove /usr/share/xemacs and reinstalled it again. Same XEmacs, but Gnus version 5.6.*. That sometimes works. But sometimes it doesn't. I've tries to remove the ~/Mail dir and Gnus creates the dirs perfectly. But when I have mail waiting Gnus fetches the mail (/var/spool/mail/ is emtpy) but it doesn't show it. No zombie groups or whatsoever. So after reinstalling Gnus and XEmacs one would think that problems are solved and that is sometimes the case. So, again, I'm completely lost here. Here's my .gnus file again... ;; Setup file for Gnus ;; Frank Hart (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.groni1.gr.nl.home.com")) (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml ""))) (setq nnmail-split-methods '(("gnus" "\\(to\\|cc\\):.*ding@gnus.org") ("webwereld" "\\(to):.*nieuwsbrief@idg.nl") ("suse-security" "\\(to\\|cc\\):.*suse-security@suse*") ("NLLGG" "\\(to\\|cc\\):.*linux@nllgg.nl") ("bugtraq" "\\(to\\|cc\\):.*BUGTRAQ@SECURITYFOCUS.COM") ("personal" ""))) ; ("Linux Today" "\\(from):.*lt@linuxtoday.com*") ; ("Linux Today Security" "\\(from):.*lt@linuxtoday.com*") (setq user-mail-address "frhart@home.nl") (setq message-default-headers "Reply-To: Frank Hart \n") ;(setq gnus-check-new-newsgroups nil) (setq gnus-read-active-file 'some) ;(setq gnus-nov-is-evil nil) ;(setq gnus-save-killed-list nil) (add-hook 'gnus-group-mode-hook 'gnus-topic-mode) (setq browse-url-browser-function 'browse-url-netscape) (setq gnus-expert-user t) ;(setq gnus-subscribe-topics t) Again, thanks for any help. -- Frank Hart - mailto:frhart@home.nl SuSE Linux 6.3 - Kernel 2.2.14 on a i686 450 Mhz with 128 Mb RAM
