Multiple IMAP accounts with Gnus/Message ?

Multiple IMAP accounts with Gnus/Message ?

[David Masterson]

I think I see how to setup reading multiple IMAP accounts with Gnus
using gnus-secondary-select-methods, but how can I also set it up so
that email that I send in reply to an email comes from my account on the
IMAP server that I read the email from?

I'm not sure I understand your question, but see variable `mail-sources'.

I think you probably want "posting-styles". The relevant bits of my
config:

(setq gnus-posting-styles
      '(("NPR"
	 (address "eric@paper-republic.org")
	 (gcc "nnimap+NPR:Sent"))
	("CHB"
	 (address "eric@coalhillbooks.com")
	 (gcc "nnimap+CHB:Sent"))
	("NEA"
	 (address "eric@ericabrahamsen.net")
	 (gcc "nnimap+NEA:Sent"))))

Then of course you'll want to set the appropriate SMTP server, see here:

HTH,

That looks interesting!  I don't think I've seen gnus-posting-styles
before.  If it is what it looks like, this is definitely something that
should be discussed in the Gnus Info pages ((gnus)Top/Select
Methods/Using IMAP).

Thanks, I'll take a look.

Could you elaborate on X-Message-SMTP-Method ?
1. What is it? (I think I kind of know)
2. How would you use/set it from Gnus?

Posting styles are not specific to IMAP. They are explained on the Gnus
Info pages.

Well, posting styles is mostly used in a simple way.
Back in the Usenet days there were active and sound
groups about everything. So for example... if you had
two activities, women's dresses and helicopters, and
two corresponding homepages with cool data and photos,
even tho you yourself weren't sensitive about this
unusual combination, for the purpose of healthy
on-topic discussion with colleagues, you don't want
one signature but two, otherwise you'd be "what
a tool" on alt.women.dresses and ... yeah, you get
it :)

  (info "(gnus) Posting Styles")

Isn't this rather an article
customizing/washing issue?

  (info "(gnus) Customizing Articles")

This answers another question which I can't find

does :) just not this one

I don't think so.  Article Washing is for the display of articles before
you read them.  What I'm looking for is how to post a new article (email
really) on a server based upon the group I am reading.

You can set an X-Message-SMTP-Method in an entry of gnus-posting-styles.
Here's snippet from mine:


(setq gnus-posting-styles '(...
      ("UManitoba:.+"
          (address "Leo.Butler@UManitoba.ca")
          (X-Message-SMTP-Method "smtp smtp.office365.com 587 Leo.Butler@umanitoba.ca"))
      ...)

When I compose an email like this one, it drops that header into the
buffer and that ensures the correct server is used.

One source of confusion is that this particular bit of information is
described in the Message manual (Mail Variables), not the Gnus manual.
