Different newsservers have different retention times. If you can't find one with a long enough span, you can always either subscribe to the mailinglist or read it on gmane.

I gather then that you are *not* using Gnus to read this newsgroup/mailinglist? It makes it quite a bit harder to help you, when you don't say anything about how and with what you are trying to accomplish things.

I think it's quite a bit easier than configuring gnus to read your mail. First, point gnus at your newserver in your .gnus. Like this: (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "your.news.host")) Then, after starting gnus and letting it get the active file -- that might take a while -- you can jump to gnu.emacs.gnus by hittin 'j' in the Group buffer. You can subscribe to it by hitting 'u'. I hope I haven't forgotten anything. You can check the gnus documentation to make sure. -- Barutan Seijin -- barutanseijin@gmail.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I put in ~/.gnus.el the following: (add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nntp "news.gnus.org")) . Then I started Gnus and in server buffer I hit RET onto {nntp:news.gnus.org} (opened) , placed point onto 'gnu.emacs.gnus' and hit 'u', then 'q' and 'q' again to get back to the group buffer. > From there I could enter the gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup.
