No. Read my earlier message. If you include the following setting in your .emacs: (setq message-fcc-handler-function 'gnus-output-to-rmail) Gnus will write the file in babyl format, not mbox.

If you want to *read* the babyl file with Gnus, you need to set either gnus-select-method, or gnus-secondary-select-methods. If you only want to *write* it, the setting that I gave above will solve the problem. -- Jim Davidson jdavidso @ csi.com
