Does that mean that it is usually there by default? This does not happen to me, which is primarily why I resort to using Outlook via VMware when I need to post articles to IMAP groups. Perhaps it is a feature of latest CVS versions (mine is dated 2002-05-17)? Or do I need to configure something to make this work (if yes, why doesn't it work that way by default)? > And then they get a message that the group does not exist. FWIW, there at least was (I don't have foreign groups at the moment so I cannot check) a somewhat related problem when one does not enter a group (no matter if it's nnimap or foreign nntp server or whatever) but uses C-u a in the group buffer. The result is different from first entering the group and then hitting a, which is what I would expect. That is, the select method is not the select method of the group but the default select method (gnus-select-method). > I started edebugging message-setup but got lost in a twisty maze of > parentheses, all alike... :) > Why does it happen for them but not for me? I don't know :( I just checked and it happens to me as well (in addition to me not getting a Newsgroups header, but perhaps this is precisely because gnus-current-select-method is nnml (my default select method) and not nnimap, the select method of the group where I hit `a'). -- Hannu
