Subject: unwanted backup files with nnfolder archive method
Date: Sat, 06 Aug 2016 16:10:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87d1lmasyk.fsf@free.fr> (raw)
I'm using the nnfolder method to archive my sent mail and posts as
described in the Gnus manual with:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq gnus-message-archive-method
'(nnfolder "archive"
(nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)
(nnfolder-active-file "~/email/Local/archive/active")
(nnfolder-directory "~/email/Local/archive/")
(nnfolder-get-new-mail nil)
(nnir-search-engine notmuch)
))
(setq gnus-message-archive-group
'((if (message-news-p)
(format-time-string "sent-news-%Y-%m")
(format-time-string "sent-mail-%Y-%m"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
However, I've noticed that for each "sent-mail-%Y-%m" file, there is
also a "sent-mail-%Y-%m~" backup file created, with roughly the same
size: the size of the archive folder is then doubled. Is it the expected
behaviour, or is there some way to avoid these files ?
Julien.
