Oh! I didn't know that .newsrc.eld was storing these info. I learned about "G p" too, pretty handy. So I took a look and the 'expiry-wait was in there. How do it got there? I played a lot with all kind of Gnus options and commands when I started using it. I didn't know what I was doing but wanted to discover Gnus features so I played with things I didn't understand… Guess I played with 'expiry-wait on this group. > Simply removing this entry should be enough to let your server parameter > take effect. Delete that and see if it works. I did remove it then "C-c C-c". I also hit "s" in groups buffer to save my changes in .newsrc.eld. I checked that the file was up-to-date and it is. I started a new instance of Emacs / Gnus. The 'expiry-wait is really gone when I check the group using "G p". But deleting / moving of expired email is also gone with it… My expired messages now stay in the group. I could manually set 'expiry-wait on each group and it would do the job but I'm pretty sure it's not the right way . -- Nicolas Cavigneaux http://www.bounga.org http://www.cavigneaux.net _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
