[Q] Programmatically remembering the backend to post with ?

[Didier Verna <didier@xemacs.org>]

  Hi,

when I C-u a on a group, Gnus somehow remembers which backend to post
with when I have several (secondary) select methods.

When I programmatically post, however, it doesn't so I must be missing
something. Here's a skeleton of a posting function that I use.

(defmacro* post-message
    ((group subject message &optional (to-group group)) &body body)
  ;; Post a Gnus MESSAGE about SUBJECT, from GROUP.
  ;; Destination group will be the same unless TO-GROUP is provided.
  ;; Execute BODY in the message buffer.

  ;; #### WARNING: SAVE-EXCURSION is important to avoid local-variable value
  ;; leaking. See some similar tricks in gnus-group-mail and such. I can't
  ;; remember the exact problem though.
  `(save-excursion
     (let ((gnus-newsgroup-name ,group)
	   gnus-article-copy)
       (gnus-post-news 'post ,to-group)
       (gmm-fill ,subject ,message)
       ,@body)))


Any help appreciated, thanks !
