A local Gnus user that i support did something "mysterious" and now some of the nnml groups seem to be (i'm not sure) agentized, or at least relocated from dir
~/Mail/mail to dir ~/News/agent/nnml/unnamed/mail Another (possibly unrelated) result is that attempts to retrieve mail (using ‘g’) from one of the IMAP sources now consistently shows "Mail source (DETAILS) error (IMAP error: Internal error occurred. Error report written to server log [TIMESTAMP])". Hmm... I'd like to restore previous known-good state if possible. How can i validate (for self-consistency and well-formedness) the structure of the Mail and News subdirs? I imagine, say, ‘M-x validate-gnus-installation RET’ to either display a message "Everything OK" or pop up a buffer w/ some diagnostic info that might help to track down the "mysterious" goings on. Dare i hope for such a beast to exist? Presuming the answer is "no, until Someone writes it", the next questions are: - How would i go about diagnosing the current situation? - What would be the best way to repair the Mail and News dirs and restore mail-retrieval functionality? _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
