I tried to customize the summary buffer appearance by setting

(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions
      '(not gnus-thread-sort-by-number))

in order to put the newest thread on top, but this does not work.

I get a warning, but it vanishes after a short pause so I can not read
it fully. It says something about "not" needing only one parameter and
getting two - or so ...


Thanks for any hints

Benrd

C-h v gnus-thread-sort-functions is informative.  You're setting it to a
list of 'not and 'gnus-thread-sort-by-number, where you probably want a
list of '(not gnus-thread-sort-by-number); try

(setq gnus-threads-sort-functions '((not gnus-thread-sort-by-number)))

instead.

I did so (& reading the related info pages), but i misunderstood the
informations obviously :|
