I'm having issues using imap as my "sent" archive. My gnus-server-alist
on gnus startup is like this:-
,----
| gnus-server-alist is a variable defined in `gnus.el'.
| Its value is
| (("archive" nnfolder "archive"
| (nnfolder-directory "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive")
| (nnfolder-active-file "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive/active")
| (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil)
| (nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)))
`----
despite my .newsrc.eld containing:-
,----
| (setq gnus-server-alist '(("archive" nnimap "mymail" (nnimap-address "offlineimap") (nnimap-stream nil))))
`----
If I then set gnus-archive-message-group to "INBOX.sent" for example I
get a debug stack when I start gnus of the form:-
,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
| file-name-as-directory(nil)
| nnheader-concat(nil "active")
| (defvar nnfolder-active-file (nnheader-concat nnfolder-directory "active") ("/usr/share/emacs/23.1/lisp/gnus/nnfolder.elc" . 1885))
| require(nnfolder)
| gnus-get-function((nnfolder "archive" (nnfolder-directory "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive") (nnfolder-active-file "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive/active") (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil) (nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)) server-opened)
| gnus-server-opened((nnfolder "archive" (nnfolder-directory "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive") (nnfolder-active-file "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive/active") (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil) (nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)))
| gnus-check-server((nnfolder "archive" (nnfolder-directory "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive") (nnfolder-active-file "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive/active") (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil) (nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)))
| gnus-read-active-file-1((nnfolder "archive" (nnfolder-directory "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive") (nnfolder-active-file "~/.emacs.d/Maildir/archive/active") (nnfolder-get-new-mail nil) (nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)) nil)
| gnus-read-active-file(nil nil)
| gnus-setup-news(nil nil nil)
| byte-code("\b„\x0e
| gnus-1(nil nil nil)
| gnus(nil)
| call-interactively(gnus nil nil)

Any suggestions? Why is it trying to open nnfolder for "archive"?
