mutt as news reader doesn't cache headers
I am using mutt as my news reader also. I am on gentoo compiled with 'nntp' use flag. I believe, it gets Vsevolod Volkov's patch. Anyway, I set news_cache_dir, it created a file with server name and has list of newsgroups. But it doesn't store the news hearders. Everytime, it gets the headers from the server. What am I doing wrong? I would like it to cache the headers and remember what I read. Thank you for your time. Thanks, Malahal. PS: Also set newsrc = ~/.newsrc
Re: mutt as news reader doesn't cache headers
Looks like I need to subscribe to a list (just mutt notion of it) before it can cache them. Makes sense! Thanks, Malahal.

Hi Eduardo! It is possible to use mutt as news reader? My favorite nntp patch is Orjan Stromberg's: http://www.ing.umu.se/~connor/programs/mutt.html I wrote a little wrapper around NNTPPost: #/bin/sh #/usr/local/bin/newspost, a wrapper for /usr/bin/NNTPPost # assumes your /etc/news/server contains the name of your newsserver touch $USER/.muttnntp_spol /usr/bin/NNTPPost $USER/.muttnntp_spol $(cat /etc/news/server) \ cat $HOME/.muttnntp_spol $HOME/.muttnntp_spol.SENT 2 /dev/null and have this in my .muttrc: #nntp-patch set nntp_offline=3Dyes bindindex F followup=20 bindpager F followup=20 macro index i !newspost\nB deliver and get news macro pager i !newspost\nB deliver and get news I like this patch much better than Vladimir's vvv-nntp, but YMMV. If the answer is yes, how should i configure it? You can use the patched source Orjan provides, make sure you compile mutt with --enable-nntp option. -Andre --+QahgC5+KEYLbs62 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8vbLtWkhBtALlJZ0RAtIaAJ4+ySzq0wnBKm0zLuN3EfJ/Vs3JnACgzMCB Lbp6TRNiHX+z45JYz13Hk1A= =ha+S -END PGP SIGNATURE- --+QahgC5+KEYLbs62--
