2 things

[Frederic Corne <frederic.corne@erli.fr>]

Hi all,

I use gnus to read news and mail. I store my mail with nnfolder method.

There are two thing that I wish to do :

- conpressing my nnfolders.
After sometime, I archive one ore more folder by renaming it. To save space
I wish to compress these folders. With nnbabyl format there is not problem
but this is impossible with nnfolder. What I can do ?

-copy an article from news to a mail folder.
I wish to store some news articles in nnfolders. There is methods for
saving articles in babyl, vm, mh and other format but not for nnfolder
format . What I can do ?

Another thing, but it is perhaps difficult :
My mail server is a pop3 server. I use a sample script popbiff.pl to check
when there is some new mails. This script only checks the existence of new
mail on the server. It does nothing more then netscape,IE, Outlook, and
consorts . But, as I have suscribed to some mailling lists, I receive a lot
of mails. These mails I can read them later. But the mails of my colleagues I
must read it immediately. 
What I need is a popbiff working in background which parses the messages on
the mail server according to nnmail-split-methods and warns me only for
messages from my entreprise. This may be something as :
- each 3" (less or more), the bacgrounded function get new mails and split
them according to nnmail-split-methods as usual .
- if there is somethings new in the mail.erli folder, warn me by displaying
a message in status bar. Else do nothing.

Is this impossible ?

Any help apreciated
