sent as read

sent as read

[Richard Riley]

Using nnimap, my "sent" are appearing as unread. Is there a gnus way to
either turn off the message count for a group or a cleverer way to mark
sent as read? I quick google showed all sorts of differing opinions so
I thought I'd see if there is a built in way. I realise I can hide the
group completely. I guess I could score myself down too. Other ways?

I guess it depends on how you're putting things in "sent". If using gcc:

`gnus-gcc-mark-as-read' is a variable declared in Lisp.
  -- loaded from "gnus-msg"

Value: nil

Documentation:
If non-nil, automatically mark Gcc articles as read.

(I have not tested it with nnimap)

yes, this is fine for local nnmail archives but I dont keep them as
gmail does it for me.

I was referring to nnimap sent, sorry for not being clearer e.g

gmail:sent

It works quite well with nnimap, though lately I've been having some specific trouble with an Exchange server.  I've got another thread on that.  It's that's related to a TLS problem, or maybe XEmacs.  As far as I can tell I'm the only one experiencing it.
