That means, the directory ~/Mail/foo becomes the mbox file ~/newMail/foo, and so forth. I grepped thru gnus' manual but only found a manual way of exporting an article `Output|Save in Unix mail format'. An easy way (for me as a lisp novice) to export the articles is to write a shell script, but what are the nitty gritty details of mbox? Or does gnus provide a way? Any help appreciated, Stefan. -- Tired of ads on the web? Don't like cookies? The Junkbuster removes both! Check out http://www.waldherr.org/junkbuster/
