Subject: IMAP-related questions
Date: Tue, 30 Oct 2012 03:49:10 -0400 (EDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <59633.96.47.226.20.1351583350.squirrel@lavabit.com> (raw)
Hi,
I have several questions connected with IMAP.
I decided to post them in a single thread because I don't want to
overwhelm the list.
Server's "~/.gnus.el":
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml ""))
(eval-after-load "mail-source"
'(add-to-list 'mail-sources '(maildir :path "~/Maildir/"
:subdirs ("cur" "new"))))
Client's "~/.gnus.el":
(setq mail-sources '((imap :server "mail.example.com"
:port 993
:stream ssl
:dontexpunge nil)))
1. How to verify server's certificate? (Will the same work for SMTP?)
2. ":dontexpunge nil" doesn't delete messages from the server. Why?
(I checked via server's Gnus.)
3. "Group" buffer always says "No more unread newsgroups". But I'll
see new emails if I hit "A A" in the "Group" buffer. Should I fix
this? (How?)
4. I marked some messages with "E", quit the "Group" buffer with "q",
quit Gnus with "q". Then I reopened Gnus and "E" marks
disappeared. The same applies to "R". (I haven't tried other marks
yet.) Why?
