Hi.
I'd like to know if it's possible to archive old mails os a mailing-list stored in a nnml folder using expiration to a nnfolder.
At the present time I've only configured archive of nnml to another nnml archive, but I'm afraid I get too many files for the OS someday.
Thanks in advance.

Sure. Look at `nnmail-expiry-target' in the Gnus manual.

This works, but I can't get back to the archived messages :(
I customized the parameters for the current gnus-ding group (which is
nnml:gnus-ding) so that expiry target goes to an already created
(empty) "nnfolder:gnus-ding_archive" group.
Whenever I expire messages in the nnml:gnus-ding group, the articles
get copied to the file ~/Mail/gnus-ding_archive (and removed from the
nnml directory)...
But I can't open the nnfolder group from the *Group* buffer (neither
RET nor C-u SPACE work), and the minibuffer reads "Can't select
group".
Is there something special to do in order to consult the "archived"
expired message copied in the nnfolder group ?
(GNU Emacs 21.1.1 and Gnus v5.8.8)
Thanx in advance for any help

This sounds like nnfolder can't find its group. Perhaps the select
method (`G e') is incorrect?

I've just checked it and it looks correct : (nnfolder "")
But, surprisingly, I now can open the nnfolder group...
I'm wondering what's just changed.... Maybe just the fact that I
checked the value of the select method corrected it ?
Anyway, there is something strange here... but it now works.
I'll keep you informed if I can get more details of what's wrong
there.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
