I am posting this here now, as I did not get any reponse on the
gnus.user list.
I have one folder in my local imap, which I see when I telnet into the
local imap server, which is seen by e.g. Mail (OSX), but not seen by
gnus. I have added the local imap server again as an additional server,
but I also couldn't see it there. It is not killed as far as I can see.
Further details are in the forwarded email below.
Suggestions?
Rainer

I created a new foreign group which connects to my local imap server and
I still can't see the imap folder named "Later"
I can see

So what is happening here?
As I said, when I Mail (OSX), I can see the folders.

One good way of seeing where things are going wrong is to edebug `nnimap-get-groups'. When you go into the *Server* buffer and list the groups in your local imap server, you'll be able to see the results of the LIST command, and then see how Gnus parses those results. That should get you closer to the source of the problem.

When I cycle through the 'nnimap-get-groups' function, I can't make any sense out of the results, but I realized that in the (while ...) loop (see the code for reference below), the folder ...[Mailbox].Later does not occur.

The early part of the function is just issuing the LIST command to imap, and inserting the results into a buffer. Just to make sure that the LIST command *isn't* returning your folder, step through `nnimap-get-groups' again, and when you get to the second (goto-char (point-min)), hit "e" to eval, and tell it (switch-to-buffer (current-buffer)). That should make visible a buffer with a name like "#<buffer *nnimap PR nil *nntpd**-44898>". You can see the results of the LIST command there. If the folder really isn't in that list, then I don't know what to tell you -- Gnus should be getting exactly the same results as your local telnet experiments. Are you using dovecot or what?

Ie, Important, or Emacs-macosx? A problem I've run into in the past is that Gnus parses the mailbox name using (read (current-buffer)). That's supposed to chomp the whole name in one go, which it does if the mailbox is quoted. But if it isn't quoted, the read just chomps forward until it hits a slash, or a period, or some other character that it considers to delimit a Lisp object. Right now, browsing the group list for any of my Gmail imap accounts, I see this in the list: U 0: [Gmail] U 0: [Gmail] U 0: [Gmail] U 0: [Gmail] Actually, those are my Spam, Trash, and Drafts groups, plus the one "HasChildren" [Gmail] mailbox. They just show up broken in the browse list, I think because of the problem I outlined above. Mind you, I'm actually able to access those groups in the *Group* buffer, I assume because the groups were already entered into my newsrc file. It would be nice if there was a dovecot option to say "quote mailbox names no matter what," but I don't know if there is. I think the spec says the names must be quoted if there's a space in them, but if not it's up to the server. Just to confirm this, would you mind eval'ling this version of nnimap-get-groups, and seeing if it helps? It's an ugly hack from ages ago, that I used when I was having this problem, but then I stopped using it, I don't remember why. It's possible I used it for a while, the groups were entered correctly into my newsrc, and then when I stopped using it it didn't break anything, so I let it go. One manual edit you'll have to make is to add a ^M control character where I've indicated below -- I think it wouldn't survive the email trip. (defun nnimap-get-groups () (erase-buffer) (let ((sequence (nnimap-send-command "LIST \"\" \"*\"")) groups) (nnimap-wait-for-response sequence) (subst-char-in-region (point-min) (point-max) ?\\ ?% t) (goto-char (point-min)) (nnimap-unfold-quoted-lines) (goto-char (point-min)) (while (search-forward "* LIST " nil t) (let ((flags (read (current-buffer))) (separator (read (current-buffer))) (group (buffer-substring-no-properties (progn (skip-chars-forward " \"") (point)) (progn (move-end-of-line 1) (skip-chars-backward " \"") ; add a C-q C-m inside this string (point))))) (unless (member '%NoSelect flags) (push (utf7-decode (if (stringp group) group (format "%s" group)) t) groups)))) (nreverse groups))) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 12+ messages in thread

When I ran into this a year or so ago I posted to the list, and got nothing but crickets. I didn't understand how I could be the only one having the problem... I'm not sure if this is the best fix (it's certainly ugly), but it does work, and I do think it's Gnus' responsibility to handle non-quoted mailbox names -- they are legal.
