Hi all
I've started having a problem with my Gnus losing e-mail again. My
original posts are available at:
http://groups.google.com/group/gnu.emacs.gnus/browse_thread/thread/5af37dd8aa003cbf
I'm seeing exactly the same thing happen, where most of the time, my
mail is delivered to the correct location, however sometimes it gets
delivered do a .mairix/Inbox/ directory instead of my Mail/Inbox/
directory. My secondary select methods are:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'(
(nnml "brett" (nnml-directory "~brett/Mail/") (nnml-get-new-mail t))
(nnml "mairix" (nnml-directory "~brett/.mairix"))
)
)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And I retrieve my mail with:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(setq mail-sources '((maildir) (maildir :path "~brett/Maildir/cur")))
(setq mail-source-delete-incoming t)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And I don't really understand the code, but I can my mail with:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(defun gnus-demon-my-scan-mail ()
(when (and (gnus-alive-p) mail-here)
(save-excursion
(set-buffer gnus-group-buffer)
(gnus-group-get-new-news 3)
)
)
)
(gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-demon-my-scan-mail 2 2)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
If anyone has any more ideas about why some of my mail is getting
delivered to the wrong backend, that would be great!
Thanks
Brett

In the above thread I suggested using
(nnml "mairix" (nnml-directory "~brett/.mairix") (nnml-get-new-mail nil))
since nnml-get-new-mail is set to t by default. Did you try this, too?

I don't remember trying this but just put it in then, will see how it
goes. Thanks!

Davie, could you please mention this in the documentation?
E.g. in (info "(gnus)Configuring nnmairix")?
Bye, Reiner.

I wasn't entirely sure that this will fix the OP's problem, but I put it
in there now.
