 If you can no longer use a regexps (like the documentation says you
 can), then I don't know how it could work for more then one mailing
 list. However, at the moment I only do have one mailing list, so I
 will try that.

No. you still use a regular expression, but without \\(..\\) surrounding
it (this was used for subexpression replacement. i.e.
you have str=hello world..., then you do
(string-match \\(hello\\) world.* str)
which gives you
(match-string 1) = hello
and you can easily replace the subexpression with ).
If you still do this, it will confuse Gnus because your regular-expression
is wrapped in another one, which uses \\(..\\) to find subexpressions..

C-h v gnus-list-identifiers:

gnus-list-identifiers's value is 
nil

Documentation:
Regexp that matches list identifiers to be removed from subject.
This can also be a list of regexps.

You can customize this variable.

Defined in `gnus-sum'.

gnus-list-identifiers

2000-07-25 Thread Brian May
Hello,

If I get a mailing list that prefixes subject lines with
[Cocoon Devel], how do I remove it?

In earlier versions of Gnus, this worked:

 (setq gnus-list-identifiers \\(\\[Cocoon Devel\\]\\))

however, as of 5.8.7 it no longer works :-(

Ideally I would like per group method, but something global like the
above would also be sufficient.

Thanks.
