Archiving posts to mbox file

Archiving posts to mbox file

[Kamil Jońca]

I want to archive my posts to Unix mbox file, so I put into my .gnus.el
something like this:

====
(setq gnus-message-archive-method  '(nnmbox "MyPosts"  (nnmbox-mbox-file "~/Gnus/News/My_Posts" nnmbox-get-new-mail f)))
(setq gnus-message-archive-group "MyPosts")
===

And then I got messages:
====
movemail: Is a directory for /home/kjonca/Mail/ (1 return).  Continue? (yes or no) 
====

Am I missing something?

Sorry. My fault, should be:
(setq gnus-message-archive-method  '(nnmbox "MyPosts"  (nnmbox-mbox-file "~/Gnus/News/My_Posts") (nnmbox-get-new-mail nil)))

And now it works.

BTW Have you considered using IMAP?
e.g. maildir based IMAP provided by dovecot.

Emacs/Gnus can use it to access maildir *WITHOUT* any "server wide server".
[ I have decided to use IMAP to be able to use a few MUAs in parallel ]

I think that is something wrong rather with gnus, because folders are
visible with thunderbird and Mutt, and only gnus can't see
them. (Browse server can't see them also) :(

I found the following in some forum thread (but can't remember where):
Add a function to your .gnus.el

(defun gnus-browse-imaps-server (server)
        "Browse a mail server in Gnus via IMAP-SSL."
        (interactive "sServer name: ")
        (gnus-group-browse-foreign-server
          (list 'nnimap server
             (list 'nnimap-address server)
             '(nnimap-stream ssl)
             '(nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "mail/*" "Mail/*" "INBOX.*"))
             '(nnimap-expunge-on-close ask))))

I have actually changed the list pattern to ("*" "*/*") which works for
Google Mail. After calling M-x gnus-browse-imaps-server you will be
asked for the server. You will then get a list of folders to which you
can subscribe.

Is this server specific? I have only

       gnus-select-method '(nnimap "mymail"
				   (nnimap-stream ssl)
				   (nnimap-address "imap.myserver.net")
				   (nnimap-authinfo-file "~/.authinfo")
				   (nnir-search-engine imap))

And it works fine (emacs 23).

Do you mean "Server Buffer" selectable from (*Groups*) buffer by
pressing ^ ? [ Or selecting menu "Gnus/Enter Server Buffer" ]

Dovecot. 
1. I can add groups maunally with  G m in *Group buffer*
2. I can't list folders others than INBOX  (witn e.g. browse server) and
for example Thunderbird can.
3. my dovecot configuration (mostly default except mail_location)
====================
protocols = imap imaps
listen = localhost
log_path =  /var/log/dovecot
log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S "
login_processes_count = 1
mail_location = maildir:~/Mail:LAYOUT=FS:INBOX=~/Mail:INDEX=~/.mail/dovecot
mail_privileged_group = mail
mail_debug = yes
mail_log_prefix = "%Us(%u): "
protocol imap {
}
  
protocol pop3 {
  pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv
}
protocol managesieve {
  sieve=~/.dovecot.sieve
  sieve_storage=~/sieve
}
auth default {
  mechanisms = plain
  passdb pam {
  }
  userdb passwd {
  }
  user = root
}
dict {
}
plugin {
}

I have started with Gnus only recently, so I am not yet familiar with
all the features. As of my understanding it is only possible to browse
the server specified in the gnus-select-method but not in the
gnus-secondary-select-methods. Moreover, with the above method it is
possible to add folders from different imap services for the poor people
(like me) who have several email accounts.

I've been doing something like that for years, and I use dovecot, and it
works.  I wonder what's tripping up the OP.

100% Agreed.  The docs don't paint a clear architectural picture of the
system, and nnimap is prone to confusing behavior, especially when used
with the agent, if you have other mail clients.  Still, it's better than
anything else I can find.  I just wish I really understood it.

The only thing I am missing in nnimap (of gnus) is that I can not
preview the email by partial downloading. A typical scenario is when I
got a email with 2M attachments, I can only read the few lines of text
after I download all the 2M attachments, which is very very slow...

This seems very interesting. Do you know about any email clients that

I am not sure about other email clients (such as Thunderbird), need to
be tried. But partial downloading is supported by the FETCH command in
IMAP RFC.

This thread (two years ago) gives some clues:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/62566/focus=62654

I am not sure if there is any following works.

Thank you for answering.

It will be very useful if Gnus can use this feature whenever an email is
greater than certain size.

I would be interested in starting a group of nnimap hackers who are
interested in learning and improve that backend.  Takers?

Sorry, it was stupid typo with setting
gnus-secondary-select-methods in my gnus.el. Now wors fine, almost.
The only thing, I can't set is archive based on from header, 
gnus-message-archive-group seems to be evaluated *before* "From" header
is set from group posting-style.

You can copy sender "auto-selection rules" to gnus-message-archive-group
to select "archive folder".
e.g. I use three separate "sent folders": one for usenet, second for
mailing list, and third for "all other" (email).

'(gnus-message-archive-group (quote (
   ("^[^:]+$" "nnimap:Posted") 
   ("^nnimap:Lists\\." "nnimap:Posted-List") 
   (".*" "nnimap:Sent"))))

Hope That Helps.

I can separate messages according to mail/usenet status, but I can't by
from :(
I have adapted script found at http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusMSMTP
(cg-feed-msmtp) with no success.

Ouch, I'm afraid you are running into the Emacs integer limit.  There
is nothing Gnus nor nnimap can do, the only options is to use XEmacs
(which has a 31 bit limit), use Emacs on a 64bit machine, or hack
Emacs to use emulated 64bit integers ("long long").

Certainly, here it comes:

As you can see there are two mails in the box, one is unseen from this
client, but from the *Groups* buffer there is no access to the mail, I
doubt it is ever fetched. I don't see any errors though.

So I tried something else.

> From the *Groups* buffer I did ^ and then I added it as another
server of the nnimap type. After giving it my account name and
password it connected nicely and I got the following groups:

K      0: INBOX
K      0: Skickade brev
K      0: Trash

I hit "u" on all of them and the K's disappeared, and then I "q":ed
back to the *Groups* buffer where I did "F" and yay, my INBOX etc on
the IMAP server showed up.

However, the joy was short, because I was unable to access any folders
even after having subscribed to them :( Hitting return on one of them
produces this error message:

Retrieving newsgroup: nnimap+imap.algonet.se:INBOX...
nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+imap.algonet.se:INBOX...done
Group INBOX selected
gnus-select-newsgroup: Couldn't request group nnimap+imap.algonet.se:INBOX: Group INBOX selected

That is from the *Messages* buffer.

Below you will find the contents of the IMAP-Log buffer after such a
session (it's a bit long but I am not culling it out, maybe you can
read out more from this, I am not so experienced with IMAP):

going on here which I have missed.
