Thank you! Those are what it took to get me started. Gnus is very nice, once I wrapped my head around the concept of using a newsreader to read mail. :) Now I've got my mail splitting properly, something I've never had in my life (I'm a sysadmin, so I should have, but I've been too lazy to get that working server-side ;), and I got all the flags set correctly and my summary lines like I want, so now everything is making sense! Sorry, I've got another question now. :) Mutt (blah, tried that before Gnus) has a really nifty feature where you can set the From: header depending on different rules. For example, when replying to a 'ding@gnus.org' article (do I really have to use usenet vocabulary for my mail now? :), I'd like the From: header to appear as 'gnus@butchwax.com,' and when replying to an 'openldap-users@openldap.org' article, I'd like the From: header to appear as 'openldap@butchwax.com.' Is this something I need to control from gnus or message? Seems like gnus, since message might not have full access to the original article's headers. Is this common practice amongst you gnus/mail users? I've been using this (creating new email addresses for new entities) as a stupid spam-control method for a while now. It's been very effective, especially since I can track who's been giving my email out to spammers (who'd have thought onebox.com would give my email address to the weight loss and university diploma spammers?!?). Thanks again! Gnus rocks! BTW, if I can find the time, I'll write up a HOWTO/quickstart guide for folks converting from conventional mailers to gnus. I think if you're not already a gnus user, it's not obvious..... Let me know if you think this is a good idea, or if you think I'm just being a whiny punk! John
