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
