Goto the *Server* buffer, to close a server: ,---- | C runs the command gnus-server-close-server | which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-srvr.el'. | It is bound to C, <menu-bar> <Connections> <Close>. | (gnus-server-close-server server) | | Close server. `---- then to start a server manually: ,---- | O runs the command gnus-server-open-server | which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `gnus-srvr.el'. | It is bound to O, <menu-bar> <Connections> <Open>. | (gnus-server-open-server server) | | Force an open of server. `---- > Also, does anyone know whether there's a timeout variable?

Alternatively, you might try gnus agent (info "(gnus)Gnus Unplugged"), which i'm using myself. -- William http://williamxu.net9.org _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
