When in the Group buffer, press ^ to access the Server buffer. Then enter your imap server, and subscribe to any folder that you want. When I try to enter the imap server, the cursor is put onto the next line. Trying e gives a beep as a SPC also does. -- Dr S Mountbatten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Have a look at your message buffer: *Messages* I've done that, but the only clue is the report that gnus is analysing the file .imap-authinfo. Why gnus fails to open the link with mail.messagingengine.com is a mystery. Here is the contents of that file: machine mail.messagingengine.com login poenikatu password * port 993 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Getting mail using gnus
My gnus-init-file contains the following: == (setq user-full-name Sian Mountbatten) (setq user-mail-address poenik...@operamail.com) (setq gnus-select-method '(nntp nntp.aioe.org)) (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnimap Opera (nnimap-address mail.messagingengine.com) (nnimap-authenticator poenikatu) (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnimap-server-port 993) (remove-prefix INBOX.) (nnimap-authinfo-file /home/sian/.imap-authinfo == The file .imap-authinfo contains == machine mail.messagingengine.com login poenikatu password ** port 993 == When I issue the command M-x gnus in Emacs, some messages flash by in the echo area, but I do not get any mail. Has anybody got any ideas what I am doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated. You might remember that I know very little about Emacs Lisp. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
