On 9 Feb 2004, Mark Plaksin uttered the following:

I personally set it as:
,----
| ;;;_ + Change default Gnus places. Avoid to see it in a 'ls' command
| (setq nnml-directory (concat xm-gnusdir xm-maildir)
| gnus-cache-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "var/cache/")
| gnus-directory xm-gnusdir
| gnus-group-faq-directory nil
| gnus-x-face-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "etc/faces/")
| gnus-home-directory xm-gnusdir
| gnus-kill-files-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "etc/scores/")
| message-directory (concat xm-gnusdir xm-maildir)
| gnus-agent-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "var/agent/")
| gnus-audio-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "etc/audio/")
| gnus-startup-file (concat xm-gnusdir "etc/newsrc")
| nndraft-directory (concat xm-gnusdir xm-maildir "drafts/")
| nnml-active-file (concat xm-gnusdir "etc/active"))
|
|
| (setq mail-source-directory (concat xm-gnusdir xm-maildir))
| (setq mail-source-delete-incoming t)
| (setq nnmail-tmp-directory (concat xm-gnusdir xm-maildir "tmp/"))
|
| (setq gnus-article-save-directory (concat xm-gnusdir "save/"))
`----
I think the only related missing thing I should have configure is the
`message-directory` variable.
I will change and see what happen.
Thank you for your enlightenment.
