Let's see: ,----C-h v gnus-fetch-old-headers | gnus-fetch-old-headers's value is nil | | Documentation: | *Non-nil means that Gnus will try to build threads by grabbing old headers. | If an unread article in the group refers to an older, already | read (or just marked as read) article, the old article will not | normally be displayed in the Summary buffer. If this variable is | t, Gnus will attempt to grab the headers to the old articles, and | thereby build complete threads. If it has the value `some', all | old headers will be fetched but only enough headers to connect | otherwise loose threads will be displayed. This variable can | also be a number. In that case, no more than that number of old | headers will be fetched. If it has the value `invisible', all | old headers will be fetched, but none will be displayed. | | The server has to support NOV for any of this to work. | | This feature can seriously impact performance it ignores all | locally cached header entries. | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Look at here. | You can customize this variable. | | Defined in `gnus-sum'. `---- > (setq gnus-posting-styles > '((".*" > (name "Gary Wessle") > (address "phddas@yahoo.com")))) > (setq gnus-extract-address-components > 'mail-extract-address-components) > **************************************************************** > > thanks -- Roman
