Subject: thread referral and nnir
Date: Sat, 23 Jul 2011 12:40:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ei1hc5mm.fsf@andy.bu.edu> (raw)


I've just checked in a small change so that thread referral
(`gnus-summary-refer-thread', or `A T') can use nnir to search across
multiple groups. By default everything should work as before. If you use
`A T' with a (non-numeric) prefix arg then nnir will search for thread
articles across all groups on the server and take you to an ephemeral
group composed of these articles.

If you want to make this change the default without having to use a
prefix arg just set `gnus-refer-thread-use-nnir' to t. This also
reverses the meaning of a (non-numeric) prefix arg (i.e. with
`gnus-refer-thread-use-nnir' set to t a prefix arg will cause
`gnus-summary-refer-thread' to only search in the current group) so you
can easily get back to the old behavior on servers that might be slow.

At the moment this only works for nnimap servers using the imap search
engine, but should be easy to add for other engines as well.
