Hello,
This is for:
"21.4 (patch 19) \"Constant Variable\" XEmacs Lucid"
"Gnus v5.10.7"
I'm trying to browse old nnfolder mailboxes using
`gnus-group-make-doc-group'. When I open some of the groups, I see
something like:
. [ 205: Arnaud ] Wed, Aug 2 2000 <* mixed> gnats enhancements
*PLEASE READ*
. [ 174: Arnaud ] Wed, Aug 2 2000 <1 text>
. [ 15: Arnaud ] Wed, Aug 2 2000 <2 x-vcard> "arnaud.vcf"
The three "virtual" messages are from the same "physical" message;
also, I don't see the remaining messages in the group. (In contrast,
if I "mail -f" the file I made the doc group from, I see 1500+
messages.)
My guess would be that an ill-formed multipart/mixed message is
confusing Gnus; is there a way to force Gnus to display the "raw"
message:
. [ 394: Arnaud ] Wed, Aug 2 2000 gnats enhancements *PLEASE READ*
. [ 714: Bill ] Wed, Aug 3 2000 Re: gnats enhancements *PLEASE
READ*
Thank you for your help.
Bill

Use the prefix argument to force mbox:
,----[ (info "(gnus)Foreign Groups") ]
| `G f'
| Make a group based on some file or other
| (`gnus-group-make-doc-group'). If you give a prefix to this
| command, you will be prompted for a file name and a file type.
| Currently supported types are `mbox', `babyl', `digest', `news',
| `rnews', `mmdf', `forward', `rfc934', `rfc822-forward',
| `mime-parts', `standard-digest', `slack-digest', `clari-briefs',
| `nsmail', `outlook', `oe-dbx', and `mailman'. If you run this
| command without a prefix, Gnus will guess at the file type. *Note
| Document Groups::.
`----
Bye, Reiner.
