First of all, is there an easy way to move an existing nnml group to nnimap one? I did try to use "B c" to move one to a new nnimap group, but it was too slow for an large or huge group. Secondly, what size of one nnimap group is appropriate? I think nnimap will be slower than nnml and it is good to maintain appropriate size of nnimap groups. Can you give me a rough size? Thirdly, is there a way to share gnus marks among xemacses on other machines? I remember I saw an thread regarding this issue. I want to know the current status of it. Lastly, I use UW imap server, which doesn't seem to be recommended for gnus. Does it have any defect unlike Courier or Cyrus imap? Many questions. :) Thanks in advance. -- | Jinhyok Heo (novembre @ ournature.org || http://ournature.org/~novembre/) |-------------------------------------------------------------------------- | "We are still reaching for the sky.
