Hello Andrew,
I have the following functions in my .gnus (adjusted for your situation):
| (defun kdb/faq-save-directory ()
| "Determine the directory where I want my FAQ files."
| (expand-file-name "faq/" gnus-article-save-directory))
|
| (defun kdb/gnus-article-archive-name (group)
| "Return the first instance of an \"Archive-name\" in the current buffer.
| This is stolen from the Gnus code."
| (let ((case-fold-search t))
| (when (re-search-forward "archive-name: *\\([^ \n\t]+\\)[ \t]*$" nil t)
| (nnheader-concat (kdb/faq-save-directory)
| (match-string 1)))))
Setting the variable `gnus-split-methods' using the above function, Gnus
will save your FAQ files in the correct directory. Be careful when setting
this variable. It may contain the function `gnus-article-archive-name'. It
should be removed from the list.
| (setq gnus-split-methods '((kdb/gnus-article-archive-name))
I hope this helps,
Kees.
