I'm quite sure that setting only `gnus-home-directory' (or `gnus-directory') and `message-directory' is sufficient to cover proper initialization of all the variables listed below. I can imagine that you need to set `gnus-home-directory' (or `gnus-directory') and `message-directory' quite early, i.e. before Gnus/Message libraries are loaded, though. If this is not the case, there's a bug we'd like to fix. | (setq gnus-startup-file (concat gnus-home-directory ".newsrc")) | (setq gnus-cache-directory (concat gnus-home-directory "cache/")) | (setq gnus-agent-directory (concat gnus-directory "agent/")) | (setq message-auto-save-directory (concat message-directory "drafts/")) | (setq gnus-dribble-directory gnus-home-directory) | (setq nnml-directory (concat gnus-home-directory "nnml/")) | (setq nnml-newsgroups-file (concat nnml-directory "newsgroup/")) `nnmail-crash-box' doesn't exist, maybe you meant `mail-source-crash-box'.
