I want two things: - I would like to download mails from a POP3 account and store it in a nnml format. So I have set: %%for the nnml backend (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnml "POP3-GMX" (nnml-directory "/home/oub/Mail/POP3-GMX"))) %% for the pop3 server (eval-after-load "mail-source" '(add-to-list 'mail-sources '(pop :server "pop.gmx.net" :user "5224480"))) this leads to 41: nnml+POP3-GMX:mail.misc in my Group summary buffer (the directory my mail ends up is /home/oub/Mail/POP3-GMX/mail/misc) - I also want to store older mail, from my vm folders using the nnml backend. (I set message directory to "~Mail/MESSAGES"), respooled the mail of my vm folders (as described in the manual.) To my horror those messages end up in the mail.misc directory. But this is /home/oub/Mail/POP3-GMX/mail/misc. In other words archived mail when respooled end up where my mails of the pop3 server. That is not what I want. When I use gnus-group-enter-server-mode, I se {nnml:} (opened) {nnml:POP3-GMX} (opened) now both nnml servers contain the same groups: 111: OUTBOX (some already archived mails form a vm folder) 47: mail.misc (mail of my pop3 server) I would like to have 111: OUTBOX (some already archived mails form a vm folder) only in the {nnml:} (opened) server and 47: mail.misc (mail of my pop3 server) the {nnml:POP3-GMX} (opened) server How can I define two independent servers with the nnml backend. Thanks Uwe Brauer
