Hello
Beginning to use some emacsen, I prefer XEmacs' handling in X (trying
the 21-gnome-nomule version). But I can't seem to get Gnus fetching
new mail when running it under xemacs. Running Gnus under gnu emacs21
works fine. I have these files on my system:
~/.gnus
~/.xemacs/gnus.el
~/.xemacs/gnus
~/.xemacs/.gnus
These are hard linked and contain:
<---snip-->
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nnml "private")))
(setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/chris")))
(setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/chris")))
(setq nnmail-use-long-file-names nil)
(setq nnml-get-new-mail t)
<---snip-->
(The mail-sources line is doubled since it seems that gnus under
emacs did write it back a second time into the file)
Additionally I tried to put the same into ~/.xemacs/init.el, but this
didn't change anything either.
Gnus loads up fine (but presents an empty group listing since I
haven't generated any group so far). Pressing M-g gives 'No more
newsgroups', pressing 'g' gives 'No gnus is bad news'.
Using strace I see that xemacs will open and read the ~/.gnus file,
so gnus should really see the config.
Does anyone actually use Gnus under xemacs21-gnome(-nomule)?
Christian.
