gnus-boring-article-headers suggestion

[NAGY Andras]

Following the pattern introduced by the `newsgroups' element, namely:

`newsgroups'
     Remove the `Newsgroups' header if it only contains the current
     group name.


I suggest having a `to' element available as well:

`to'
     Remove the `To' header if it only contains the value of the current
     group's `to-address' parameter.

importing mails from other gnus

[Dirk Gomez]

Hi,

I have about a megabyte of mails from another gnus that I want to import: no
syncing, just importing. How can I do this?

regards Dirk

`G f' the old mail files, then `B c' to copy them over.  If each
folder is not a file but is a directory, use `G D' rather than `G f'.

Done, but I name it `to-address'.

My nnml:list.ding group parameters are:

((to-address . "ding@gnus.org")
 (to-list . "ding@gnus.org")
 (total-expire . t)
 (expiry-wait . 45))

Yet I still see
        To: ding@gnus.org
in *Article* when gnus-boring-article-headers is set to
        '(empty followup-to reply-to to-address)

I'm confused.

Have you turned on gnus-treat-hide-boring-headers? Or try `W W b'.

That did it, thanx.
(Though I suppose I should note that I needed to set it to 'head, not
to t, which surprises me somewhat.)

This confusion has been an issue since the *treat* variables were
developed.  Some are relevant only to the headers and so 'head is
needed instead of t, which means apply to all parts in the body (you
can look it up :-) IMHO, a new value for the *treat* variables, 'body,
should be used to imply all body parts and t should imply treatment of
all parts of the article that are relevant to this particular
function.

another gnus-boring-article-headers suggestion

[NAGY Andras]

We have `reply-to' as a possible value in
gnus-boring-article-headers.  What about a `broken-reply-to' option,
which would hide the Reply-To header if

(version A) the group has a broken-reply-to paramter set.

(version B) the address in the Reply-To field is identical to the
groups' to-address (to-list?) parameter.

(version C) conditions in A and B are met.
