Well, I must say that the Gnus manual is utterly overwhelming! I can at least connect to usenet, but setting it up for mail is a bit harder as I can't screw thing up in the process. I wonder if someone can give me a quick pointer of where I need to get started for the following situation:
I am using RMAIL with <<many>> files in Babyl format. Each individual that I correspond with has their own file. Once read, I sort the emails to their proper file by hand. Mail comes from the local spool. I now need to shift over to gnus. I would like the same functionality until I can figure out how to use gnus to change everything over to MailDir. I don't want to get blindsided by incorrect expiration that might delete mails that I keep until I can act on them. How in god's (pick a convenient one) name do I do this?? I am so lost in details that I am having trouble figuring how to start. Reading the manual linearly is not working, which is what I tried after jumping around failed. Any chance someone could give me a couple of pointers so I could begin to step into this? Thanks all in advance - /DA. (By the way, this needs to be quick. emacs 23 is long out, and I don't want to shift over to the destructive mbox format that RMAIL is now using.) _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
