But this only works > for nnml and nnmh groups. This code is not tested. Does it work? The variables do in fact hold the information I want. So theres a big jump up... Now since I'm a no-lisp reading moron.. I'm not sure what your code is supposed to do. Or what I should do with it. I assumed it was intended to be evaluated... So with the variables giving this information: gnus-newsgroup-name's value is=20 "nnml:ding3" <=3D=3D the ding@gnus.org list -o- gnus-newsgroup-processable's value is=20 (17 53 22 16 8 7) Local in buffer *Summary nnml:ding3*; global value is=20 nil Evaling your code gives me: M-: (mapcar (lambda (g) (expand-file-name g (gnus-group-real-name gnus-newsgroup-name "~/Mail/"))) gnus-newsgroup-processable) nil
