The documentation refers to this as "a pain" and that it works "most of the time" (see below). Or is the "pain" and "most of the time" part of it only associated with the `gnus-mailing-list-groups' variable, and not the `to-address' parameter? Thanks. `gnus-mailing-list-groups' If your news server offers groups that are really mailing lists gatewayed to the NNTP server, you can read those groups without problems, but you can't post/followup to them without some difficulty. One solution is to add a `to-address' to the group parameters (*note Group Parameters::). An easier thing to do is set the `gnus-mailing-list-groups' to a regexp that matches the groups that really are mailing lists. Then, at least, followups to the mailing lists will work most of the time. Posting to these groups (`a') is still a pain, though. -- Lloyd Zusman ljz@asfast.com
