changing `message-qmail-inject-program' on a per-group basis?

changing `message-qmail-inject-program' on a per-group basis?

[Jason R. Mastaler]

I'm looking for a way to change the value of
`message-qmail-inject-program' when I enter a certain group.
Obviously group parameters come to mind, but this doesn't seem to
work.  When I have the following as my group parameter:

((message-qmail-inject-program "/local/bin/qmail-inject"))

I suppose this is just a limitation of group parameters, so does
anyone have another suggestion?

Thanks.

You could add a function to gnus-summary-mode-hook that sets the
variable, but I'm not sure how the hook function would detect which
group is being entered.

Does it help to add this variable to gnus-newsgroup-variables?

After adding it to `gnus-newsgroup-variables', now
`message-qmail-inject-program' is set to "nil" every time I enter a
group.  So, it is having an effect, just not the desired one.

And if you enter the group where you set the variable?

You could set the default value in the top-level topic (the `Gnus'
topic).

You could set the default value of that variable via (setq-default
message-qmail-inject-program "...").

Does that help?  I haven't actually tried any of this.

As soon as I enter a group, the value is reset to "nil" no matter what
I have for `message-qmail-inject-program' in that group's parameters.

Doesn't seem to help.

Ditto.

Maybe it helps to put the variable in gnus-newsgroup-variables and to
add a function to gnus-summary-mode-hook (or another one of the
summary hooks) which sets the variable depending on the value of
gnus-newsgroup-name.

This is getting too messy.  I ended up doing what I wanted thru my
delivery-agent instead of Gnus.  Thanks for the help though.
