Since I'm moving to imap from pop I might as well ditch my old email client and do one more thing i emacs. Gnus seems to be the email client of choice in emacs. I've been looking at my.gnus.org and have reached the point were I can open my imap mailboxes in gnus and write/send mail. When I issue gnus-summary-reselect-current-group in the summary buffer I get "Ephemeral groups can't be reselected". I understand the difference between ephemeral groups and solid groups but I don't understand why my nnimap groups default to ephemeral. emacs version: 21.4a-1ubuntu1 gnus version: 5.10.6-0.CVS.20050610-1 relevant part of .gnus.el (setq gnus-select-method '(nnimap "m4" (nnimap-address "mymailserver") (nnimap-server-port 143) (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/repos/conf/authinfo-mail-m4") )) -- Alex Polite http://flosspick.org - finding the right open source
