I'm using Ma Gnus v0.4 and GNU Emacs 24.0.93.1. First, when fetching the batch of messages which contained this thread from my POP3 server, all messages were written into ~/.emacs-mail-crash-box. It's a good idea to save the data when a problem occurs, but you have to know about .emacs-mail-crash-box, because you're not notified. So you wonder (a) where your mail has gone and (b) why you can't fetch new mail. Second, I tried to import the mail from .emacs-mail-crash-box into Gnus by opening the file via G f. However, this batch of mail also contained several digests, and Gnus then showed me only the messages of the first digest (as individual messages) and no other messages. Again I wondered where may mail had gone. Eventually I was able to solve the problem by replacing \] with \\] in .emacs-mail-crash-box and copying it to my local mailbox. However, this was a very unpleasant experience. Now I wonder: 1. Is this a bug in Gnus? It seems so. 2. Shouldn't users be informed when their mail is written into .emacs-mail-crash-box? 3. Is there a way to open an mbox file which contains digests as a foreign group? This particular batch of mail does not contain any personal messages, so I'd be happy to provide it for debugging. Thanks in advance! Best regards -- Dr.-Ing. Michael Piotrowski, M.A. Public key at (ID 0x1614A044)
