* Reading mail with no News server -- dupe groups? @ 2006-06-02 17:08 Chris Shenton [not found] ` <864pz3v62o.fsf-bvSyCKhI1+1mFww3J7gtCmD2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org> 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Chris Shenton @ 2006-06-02 17:08 UTC (permalink / raw) There's no news server at my work so I've made gnus-select-method connect to our (shudder) Exchange server: (setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "hemi" (nnimap-address "ourserver.example.gov") (nnimap-stream ssl) ...)) But there's some flakiness: some groups are duplicated in my *Group* buffer: INBOX/list/ice-dev nnimap+hemi:INBOX/list/ice-dev I have LOTS of such duplicated groups and thus messages. My *Server* buffer shows the one IMAP server: {nnimap:hemi} (opened) in addition to nnfolder, nndraft, and nndoc servers. If I read a msg in one of the group-variants (e.g., INBOX/list/ice-dev) I see it also in the other group-variant (e.g., nnimap+hemi:INBOX/list/ice-dev). Am I doing something wrong in my source specification? Is it inappropriate to use nnimap as the primary gnus-select-method? If I should use gnus-secondary-select-method for nnimap instead, I can't find a way to tell gnus-select-method not to try any news/mail server. Suggestions? Thanks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I've used it in the past but this time I was misspelling it as "nnil" and couldn't find anything on it in the Gnus *info* docs (I can't find any mention of "nnnil" in *info* either)-: > and instead use the following for your /mail-change/ server: > ,----[ C-h v gnus-secondary-select-methods RET ] > | gnus-secondary-select-methods is a variable defined in `gnus.el'.
