Hello, I'm trying to speed up the way gnus operates over a modem (this isn't to do with Agent). I've been using Gnus to read my mail and Knews to read my news via a modem because it's much faster. Knews has a caching facility that will allow it to create caches of read articles (a trail cache) and unread articles (an ahead cache). I can then select an article that is in the ahead cache and read it and I can go back and select an article that I have already read and so is now in the trail cache and read that. Articles that are in the either cache appear almost instantaneously. I'm trying to recreate similar behavior with Gnus. That way I could then use the one program to read mail and news from a variety of sources. I am using this on some groups I subscribed to using G m with nntp as the method. I have been experimenting with (setq gnus-asynchronous t), (setq gnus-keep-backlog t) and (setq gnus-use-cache t) in my .gnus file though not necessarily always together. However I find that if I view a uuencoded article with X u and then decide to save with X U Gnus fetches the entire message from the server again. I see the same thing if I view a MIME encoded message as well. What I want is to have the previously seen article remain in the cache or the backlog buffer without my having to mark the article. Does anyone have any suggestions? -- Eze Ogwuma ------- End of forwarded message -------
