Subject: move ~/News ~/Mail dir?
Date: Wed, 24 May 2006 01:05:04 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2bqtonv7z.fsf@sl392.st-edmunds.cam.ac.uk> (raw)

Dear all,

I have been using gnus in my laptop with the default setting of News
and Mail dir's for about 6 months. I have decided to move these dir's
to another home in a server so that I can access them anywhere.

The home in the server can be mounted to my laptop under ~/srcf. I
have customized gnus in my laptop with these lines in ~/.emacs:

,----
| (setq
|  gnus-startup-file "~/srcf/.newsrc"
|  message-directory "~/srcf/Mail"
|  message-auto-save-directory "~/srcf/Mail/drafts/"
|  gnus-directory "~/srcf/News"
|  gnus-cache-directory        "~/srcf/News/cache/"
|  nnfolder-directory "~/srcf/Mail/archive"
|  )
`----

However, when I start local gnus it still will create ~/Mail/archive
and ~/News and the SCORE file will be saved to ~/News too.

Any suggestions?
