save in rmail format problem

save in rmail format problem

[Alfred J Correira]

In pgnus v0.65, if I type 'O r' to save a message in rmail format, I get the
following error:

Signaling: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
  expand-file-name(nil "~/")
  rmail-output-to-rmail-file(nil)
  byte-code(...)
  gnus-article-save(#<buffer  *Gnus Save*> nil 1)
  gnus-summary-save-article(nil)
  gnus-summary-save-article-rmail(nil)
* call-interactively(gnus-summary-save-article-rmail)

V0.65 is the first version of pgnus I've run.  This problem was not in 5.6.44
(which is what I was running until this weekend).  The only real difference in
the saving process that I could see right off is that
gnus-default-article-saver changed from being bound to
gnus-summary-save-in-rmail to being bound to rmail-output-to-rmail-file.  If I
switch back to gnus-summary-save-in-rmail everything works again.  I couldn't
tell from the ChangeLog why the switch was made.

The default in 0.69 is gnus-summary-save-in-rmail, and I don't
remember changing it between 0.65 and now...

(I'm now at the airport.  Tee hee.  It's brand new, and kinda cool, I
think.  Lots of stone and wood and sound showers and artsy-fartsy
stuff that I like.)
