Re: Archiving entire nnmail group to a single file?

[Charles A. Roelli]

Hi Loris,

Set the variable `gnus-prompt-before-saving' to t, mark all the articles
you want to save (say, by typing `M P b' in the Group buffer), then hit
an output key like `O r' (for rmail format) or `o' (for the default
format) and type the name of the file you want the mail to be saved in.
If you're archiving a lot of mail this can take a while.

See here for more details:

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Charles

I didn't get any replies to this, so I'll rephrase the question:

  If I have an email account which I am accessing via IMAP, what
  approaches could I take using Gnus to archiving some of the mail
  folders to disk?

Cheers,

Loris
