I don't think it's that. I don't have a (require 'nnmairix) and now it's working. I think the problem is that I was investigating mairix by walking through the info pages, and I had already started Gnus. If you do that, nnmairix-group-mode-hook, which sets up the keybindings, never gets called. > We should set up a permanent binding in group mode for an autoloaded > nnmairix-create-server-and-default-group.

Could you make it so? Is there no good option that doesn't require three keystrokes for doing searches? Whatever is chosen, I also noticed that there are no menu items for mairix. Since I have trouble remembering such long keystrokes, menu items would be useful. Also, `G G ?' and/or `G G h' should show a list of further keystrokes. And maybe `G G' can say "Type ? for further options" the way `C-h' does? Dan ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

G b is the current nnmairix prefix, but when I type `G b ?', I get G b ? is undefined I wanted to make sure this didn't happen when G b was switched to something else.
