First off, thank you for all the responses to my questions. I think my issue with the g/M-g item is simply some strange behavior associated with my usenet provider (giganews). At least I have found other giganews/gnus users with the problem. So M-g it is, for me!
I have one final (as far as I can see) thing I am stuck on. My previous newsreader was Pan and once it downloaded the headers for a group they would display in that group's summary buffer irregardless of read/unread status. I would like to duplicate this behavior but am running into a wall. I know one way to display read headers is to enter C-u N <Enter> in the group buffer to display N many read headers. This however does not display all downloaded headers which is the behavior I would like. I have tried adding gnus-fetch-old-headers 'some into my .gnus but this seems to ignore any cached headers as it hits the server every time upon group entry and starts downloading more headers. I've looked into the article caching features of gnus but these seemingly aren't really what I need either; I just want to display previously cached headers not store entire articles on a case by case basis. (I'm referring to Y c, / * and friends here) So I'm stuck. I have the agent enabled with my server agentized and plugged. The headers are being cached because C-u N will not hit the nntp server if I request N<Headers Downloaded headers. Just need to figure out how to display those cached headers by default. Thanks again. -- Do they only stand By ignorance, is that their happy state, The proof of their obedience and their faith? _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
