I am using Opensuse with Emacs 23.1.1 for X86_64 I already have fetchmail setup, as well as msmtp. I can send mail with gnus, and my Maildir has messages in it from receiving it from fetchmail. It goes something like described below. Fetchmail ---> Procmail ---> Maildir Outgoing works great something like this. Gnus ---> msmtp ---> world Of course emacswiki, and a group search has so far not given me an answer. Below is what is written in the message area and tells me that my Gnus server cannot open Maildir. I also tried to copy a message into a new group and it would not allow me to do it. -------- Opening nnmaildir server on Maildir...failed No such group: nnmaildir+mymailbox:test. Create it? (y or n) gnus-read-move-group-name: Couldn't create group nnmaildir +mymailbox:test Auto-saving... Quit Couldn't open Maildir ------- This was taken from emacswiki for the procmail setup, which shows my gnus.el file. I have tried to modify it a few times by changing the name of "mymailbox" to something else but I still have the same problem. ------ ;;; nnmaildir procmail settings (setq gnus-select-method '(nnmaildir "mymailbox" (directory "~/ Maildir/")) mail-sources '((maildir :path "~/Maildir/" :subdirs ("cur" "new"))) mail-source-delete-incoming t ) (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods nil) (setq gnus-message-archive-group "nnmaildir+mymailbox:outbox") ;;; ------ I also have this in my gnus server buffer. {nnfolder:archive} (opened) No where in my .init.el, or gnus.el files do I have any setting set for nnfolder. Any suggestions are welcome. Rthoreau
