Subject: delete as moving to Trash
Date: 17 Aug 2001 13:54:54 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2ofpez9sx.fsf@eureka.bothner.com> (raw)

Something I didn't see covered in the FAQ:

In order to be more compatible with other mail readers who don't have
Gnus's notion of expiration (such as Mozilla), it seems to me it would
make sense to "delete" a message by moving it to a Trash folder.  This
also has the advantage that when marks get lost, at least the deleted
messages stay in Trash, and it also makes it easier to look at
old/read messages without getting swamped by deleted messages.

The following seems to work for me:

(add-hook 'gnus-summary-mode-hook 'my-alter-summary-map)
(defun move-article-to-Trash (&optional n)
  (interactive "P")
  (gnus-summary-move-article n "Trash"))
(defun my-alter-summary-map ()
  (local-set-key "d" 'move-article-to-Trash))

But perhaps there is a better way?
