It seems to be solved, now.
All I had to do was to update my cvs copies of emacs and gnus and put
in my ~/.gnus.el the following stuff:
(setq gnus-refer-article-method
'(current
(nnweb "google"
(nnweb-type google))))
. Then, in the group buffer, I did:
`G w RET <search string> RET'
an Gnus displayed the message(s) corrispondent to the search string.
Many kind thanks to Tassilo and all the other posters in the present thread.
But now:
suppose I want to continue an old thread:
I can fetch it with the above procedure, but how can I follow it up to the
gnu.emacs.gnus newsgroup?
If I do `S n' (or `S N') in the Article buffer and then try to send it with
`C-c C-c', gnus says:
Sending...
Really use this possibly unknown group: gnu.emacs.gnus? (y or n)
Sending news via m2lkugcom8.fsf-ephemeral using nnweb...
nnweb-request-post not implemented
Couldn't send message via news: nnweb-request-post not implemented
. Is it possible, and how, to send a follow up to an old message displayed
with `nnweb' mode?
It is clear that one wants to fetch old messages via gnus in order to:
1) store them;
2) maybe continue them.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rodolfo
