nndraft:queue in 5.8.5?

[Pavel Janik ml.]

Hi,

I just wanted to test if everything is fixed in sending from nndraft:queue
with 5.8.5 so I sent test message to myself when unplugged, and it is on the
disc in the correct file ~/Mail/Drafts/queue/1. However if I;d like to enter
nndraft:queue I got:

BTW - is it normal that there is "Opened server  using" so server is empty?

I think that should be "~/News/drafts/queue/1", shouldn't it?

no, I normally use 20.6 and 5.8.4 and have this at the end of .gnus:

(setq nndraft-directory "~/Mail/Drafts")
(setq gnus-agent-directory "~/Mail/Agent")
(gnus-agentize)

And 5.8.4 does work. Really, I have four mails in the queue and there are four
files in ~/Mail/Drafts/queue/.

When I uncomment

;   (setq load-path (cons "~/.Emacs/Work/gnus/lisp" load-path))

at the beginning of my .emacs (this is the path where I have CVS version). It
does not :-(

You can't alter server slots from .gnus.  You either have to set them
before Gnus is loaded, or define them properly in the virtual server
definition.

ok, I have it in .emacs now. When I start Emacs, both values are set
correctly:

(setq nndraft-directory "~/Mail/Drafts")
(setq gnus-agent-directory "~/Mail/Agent")

Now I start gnus from my CVS directory (not compiled). Both drafts and queue
are unaccessible. cd gnus/ && ./configure && make && emacs and it works! Why?

Gnus has a pretty deep Lisp eval depth (lots of macros that create
lexical environments (ahem)), and when running Gnus uncompiled, the
default Emacs max-lisp-eval-depth is exceeded, which makes Gnus bug
out.  However, there's an ignore-error around the group activation
calls, which makes Gnus ignore the bugout, leading Gnus just to ignore
those groups.

Perhaps it's time to apply the following patch?  Unfortunately, Emacs
and XEmacs both have deprecated one of "byte-code-function-p" and
"compiled-function-p", but not the same. :-/ The following code will
therefore result in a compilation-time warning on XEmacs 21.1, but on
XEmacs 21.2, "byte-code-function-p" is an FSF compatibility alias, and
there won't be any warning.

Thanks for the patch; I've applied it to Oort Gnus v0.04 (i. e., CVS).

hmm, when I compile this version it is OK. When I removed .elc, it is NOT. So
I must have compiled version if I need to go to queue? Isn't it weird?
