Subject: Using fetchmail with gnus (on Windows)
Date: 18 Jun 2002 16:21:36 GMT [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Xns9231734FE9C46pdavispageflexinccom@199.103.147.5> (raw)
I've given up trying to get gnus to handle my pop servers correctly (leave
mail on one, delete from the other). So I'm now thinking of using
fetchmail instead. However, I have a couple of questions:
1) fetchmail seems to leave a bunch of msg.blahblahblah files in my
/var/spool/mail/pdavis directory by default. Is this something gnus can
read as a file mail source?, or do I have to get fetchmail to put all the
messages into one file somehow? Anyone know what format or how to do that?
2) I'm on a Windows box, running fetchmail via cygwin. XEmacs and fsf
emacs, however, are native Windows apps. Is there some way to get gnus to
run fetchmail whenever I type 'g'? I don't want to have a fetchmail daemon
running continuously. I only want fetchmail to happen when I try to get
new mail in gnus.
Thanks very much!
