I still believe it is possible to specify the mail sources in the server spec. Maybe like this: (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '( (nnml "" (mail-sources ((file)))) (nnfolder "" (mail-sources ((pop :server ...)))) )) But I've never tested it, and I'm not sure about the exact syntax. I tried to skim the source code once to figure it out, but couldn't find anything conclusive. Possible alternatives to (mail-sources ((file))): - (mail-sources . ((file))) - (mail-source (file)) - (mail-source . (file)) Anyone willing to try it out and report findings? The manual needs to be fixed. -- file-error; Data: (Opening input file no such file or directory ~/.signature)
