In this case: `[illumos-developer]' So a subject line may be Subject: [illumos-developer] blah bug fix blah when In our manual in the `Group Parameters' section I see this info (ONLY PARTIAL): [...] ,---- | A use for this feature is to remove a mailing list identifier tag | in the subject fields of articles. E.g. if the news group | | nntp+news.gnus.org:gmane.text.docbook.apps | | has the tag `DOC-BOOK-APPS:' in the subject of all articles, this | tag can be removed from the article subjects in the summary buffer | for the group by putting `(gnus-list-identifiers "DOCBOOK-APPS:")' | into the group parameters for the group. `---- [...] (I'm assuming where it says `DOCBOOK' in the last sentence... its a typo and should say `DOC-BOOK') But that aside, adding the line below to Group Parameters appears to have no effect: ((gnus-list-identifiers "[illumos-developers]")) All the subject lines still have `[illumos-developers]' in them ------- --------- ---=--- --------- -------- There is a whole section above what I quoted above, that may mean some other step needs to be taken too... I really couldn't understand what that section is trying to tell me. Posting more context below; Maybe someone will know how this is supposed to work: >From section Group Parameters ,---- | [...] | | `(VARIABLE FORM)' | You can use the group parameters to set variables local to the | group you are entering. If you want to turn threading off in | `news.answers', you could put `(gnus-show-threads nil)' in the | group parameters of that group. `gnus-show-threads' will be made | into a local variable in the summary buffer you enter, and the | form `nil' will be `eval'ed there. | | Note that this feature sets the variable locally to the summary | buffer if and only if VARIABLE has been bound as a variable. | Otherwise, only evaluating the form will take place. So, you may | want to bind the variable in advance using `defvar' or other if | the result of the form needs to be set to it. | | But some variables are evaluated in the article buffer, or in the | message buffer (of a reply or followup or otherwise newly created | message). As a workaround, it might help to add the variable in | question to `gnus-newsgroup-variables'. *Note Various Summary | Stuff::. So if you want to set `message-from-style' via the group | parameters, then you may need the following statement elsewhere in | your `~/.gnus.el' file: | | (add-to-list 'gnus-newsgroup-variables 'message-from-style) | | A use for this feature is to remove a mailing list identifier tag | in the subject fields of articles. E.g. if the news group | | nntp+news.gnus.org:gmane.text.docbook.apps | | has the tag `DOC-BOOK-APPS:' in the subject of all articles, this | tag can be removed from the article subjects in the summary buffer | for the group by putting `(gnus-list-identifiers "DOCBOOK-APPS:")' | into the group parameters for the group. `----
