* Sharing gnus between 2 machines @ 2013-07-03 17:00 Julien Cubizolles 2013-07-03 17:17 ` Teemu Likonen 0 siblings, 1 reply; 6+ messages in thread From: Julien Cubizolles @ 2013-07-03 17:00 UTC (permalink / raw) To: info-gnus-english I'm looking for examples of successful setups of gnus shared between several machines. Here is what I have so far: nnimap for two imap servers nnml on local files nntp on gwene and gmane I'm using the registry for splitting and to use links to messages in Org-mode. I'm using the agent to run gnus unplugged when I'm using Emacs for something else as I don't want it to pause everytime gnus checks for messages. I'm running a cron script running gnus-agent-batch in the background. I'm synchronizing .newsrc.eld .gnus.registry.eioio .gnus.registry.eld .newsrc-dribble Mail/ News/ between two machines with unison, mostly to be able to write messages and read message-lists on my laptop while commuting. It mostly works, except that quite often, I get messages complaining about .gnus.registry.eioio that couldn't be opened and then the read status of messages seems to be lost. It's actually very annoying on very active message lists. I guess I'm not the only one with similar objectives. Could you share your strategy to accomplish it ? Thanks, Julien. _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I remember seeing similar error messages and in my system the cause was different Emacs (Gnus) versions. They expected different registry format. I sync Emacs and Gnus files between two computers too, with Unison. It works nicely but I avoid editing mail files in both locations at the same time.

Would you mind sending me the relevant parts of your .gnus.el ?

I synchronize most of my Emacs files with Unison which is packaged in Debian GNU/Linux 7. http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/ You had some registry problems which I probably can't help with. I use registry with these settings: (setq-default spam-log-to-registry t gnus-registry-max-entries 10000 gnus-registry-track-extra nil gnus-refer-article-method '(current (nnregistry))) (gnus-registry-initialize) And here are the relevant settings of my Unison configuration file. I have all my Emacs initialization files inside ~/.emacs.d directory. ignore = Name #*# ignore = Name *~ ignore = Name .#* ignore = Name .*~ ignore = Path .emacs.d/auto-save-list ignore = Path .emacs.d/bookmarks ignore = Path .emacs.d/tramp path = .authinfo.gpg path = .emacs.d path = .mailrc path = .twittering-mode.gpg path = Mail path = News [-- Attachment #1.2: Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 835 bytes --] [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/plain, Size: 162 bytes --] _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I have the same kind of setup here. Do you use the agent ? with a nnimap group ?
