Gnus issue in FreeBSD (was: Re: IPv6 rtadv on FreeBSD 8.1?)

I posted that in another thread and replied later when I discovered the problem. It appears that I had somehow put gnus-agent in offline mode, so it worked once I realized that and put it back online. How do you sync the mailboxes together? That sounds like something that could be useful for my configuration. Actually I am trying to move my old mail from Linux to FreeBSD, but syncing might be an easier way to handle moving it. -- Carl Johnsonca...@peak.org ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
