Please include me on replies.) In emacs 23, rmail will use mbox format. Is BABYL format being deprecated overall? Does this make the gnus-summary-save-in-rmail function misnamed since it seems to still write in BABYL format? Is this still a suitable default value for gnus-default-article-saver? Just a thought. I have 20 years of email saved as monthly gzipped BABYL files. I'd been thinking about converting them to mbox format anyway since it's a much more widely recognized format and a little easier to work with. I mostly access my old mail files with gnus rather than rmail now anyway though. -- Jay Berkenbilt
