Subject: Problem starting nnimap unplugged
Date: 12 Feb 2001 10:38:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m1bofw7lxmm.fsf@blackbird.mitre.org> (raw)
I use an nnimap server as a secondary select method. For a trip last
week, I decided to finally give the agent a try now that I've
discovered cygwin and XEmacs running under it. I copied over my
startup files to my cygwin home directory, modified my .gnus to call
gnus-agentize per the info, ran xemacs and gnus, and set up two
categories. I changed the default predicate to false and in the fetch
category, predicate is set to true. I added six groups to the fetch
category and ran J s to fetch the articles in those groups. I
verified by looking at the agent directory structure and went home
happy. I'm fairly certain that that's all I needed to do according to
the info. On the plane I tried to run M-x gnus-unplugged. Gnus
appeared to hang interminably long. Eventually I gave up with a C-g.
My guess is that nnimap is trying to do authentication even in
unplugged mode. When I got to the hotel and dialed up my company's
modem pool, I was able to run gnus-unplugged with no hanging but
nnimap did authenticate me to the server. I tried this repeatedly;
running gnus-unplugged while connected and not. When not connected it
hangs. Is there a workaround?
Thanks,
