Although it will take a little time I don't think it will be very hard to get it working. As Eric said, we can special-case gmail in gnus-search and just have to understand the details of how gmail searching works (I think I have already worked this out but have to do some more testing). So to the original poster jibstyle209: it's not you (and it's not gnus) it's gmail. But we should be able to work around it. >>>>> "EA" == Eric Abrahamsen writes: EA> JibStyle writes: >> Eric Abrahamsen writes: >> >>> Hey there! Thanks for the report.
