My company recently stopped providing access to a news server. My current configuration, given what I understand as stated above, is as follows: (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "dummy" (nntp-address "foo.bar.com") ) ) (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '( (nnimap "hamilton" (nnimap-list-pattern "*") (nnimap-expunge-on-close always) ) )) Is there a better way to do this? How can I configure things if I want my primary to be an IMAP server and to not have a news server? -- Jake Colman Principia Partners LLC Phone: (201) 209-2467 Harborside Financial Center Fax: (201) 946-0320 902 Plaza Two E-mail: colman@ppllc.com Jersey City, NJ 07311 www.principiapartners.com
