Without getting into unknown territory about why this is, I have encountered the same problem. I have a solution that applies only to gmail, so it may not help. I have some elisp that runs as a hook after a gnus org-mode link is created, and changes (for instance) "Inbox" to "All Mail". This takes advantage of the fact that everything in gmail is always in "All Mail" so the org link is always valid. Something similar for non-gmail probably could be cooked up if you're willing to move the item in question to a common folder such as an archive. I don't say that this is a substitute for actually figuring things out. I have tried Gnorb which tracks via the registry but never completely got it to be as general as I wished. -- Bob Newell Honolulu, Hawai`i - Via GNU/Linux/Emacs/Gnus/BBDB
question about org-link gnus message and gnus registry
hello, i'm just struggeling about the consistency of an org-link to a gnus message after moving this message into another folder on same server or a different one. scenario: i create a org link with org and insert the link into an org file. works. now i move the message inside gnus to another folder. open the link inside the org file is not valid anymore. i thought, that the registry is responsible for saving the position of any message. therefore it saves the message-id and use this to locate the message. and i thought, that org-link "knows" this message-id, though the link to the message is valid without the position of the folder or better the position of the message inside the folder. like a database index. but now i'm quite sure, that my thoughts were completely wrong?? or is it possible to locate a message through org-link? any ideas?
