Thank you. Indeed, this works for me. (require 'gnus-demon) (require 'cl-lib) (defvar *its*) (setq *its* 0) (setq gnus-demon-timestep 1) (gnus-demon-add-handler (lambda () (cl-incf *its*) (message "hello: %s" *its*)) 1 nil) Perhaps it was the `gnus-demon-timestep' that did it. (Note: if anyone can't get to the help of that variable, do (require 'gnus-demon) first. FWR this isn't necessary to get the help of `gnus-demon-add-handler', even tho that is also defined in gnus-demon.el). -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573 ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

Provided that your emacs has server mode enabled and gnus loaded, it will cause it to execute the same function as "g". It has the advantage that you don't have to do anything special (i.e. whatever you're doing with screen) to make it send keypresses to emacs, and to make sure that the group buffer is active when it does. ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english

Problem trying to get new email every 10 minutes automatically
The last line below of my Gnus config I assumed was to grab new email every 10 minutes. I sent an email to my Gmail account and noticed it showed up in my other non-Emacs email client inbox but not in Gnus inbox. Why? (If I type "g" manually in Gnus then it DOES get new email!?!?) cs (setq-default gnus-permanently-visible-groups ".*.*") (require 'nnir) (setq-default gnus-select-method '(nnimap "gmail" (nnimap-address "imap.googlemail.com") (nnimap-server-port "imaps") (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnir-search-engine imap))) (setq-default smtpmail-smtp-service 587 gnus-ignored-newsgroups "^to\\.\\|^[0-9. ]+\\( \\|$\\)\\|^[\"]\"[#'()]") (setq-default gnus-posting-styles '(((header "to" "REDACTED") (address "REDACTED")) ((header "to" "REDACTED") (address "REDACTED")) ((header "to" "REDACTED") (address "REDACTED" (setq-default user-mail-address "REDACTED") (setq-default user-full-name "REDACTED") (setq-default smtpmail-smtp-server "smtp.googlemail.com") (setq-default send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (setq-default message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it) (gnus-demon-add-handler 'gnus-demon-scan-news 10 t) ___ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
