I have something like this in my .gnus
(defun noorul/move-to-gmail-trash ()
(interactive)
(let ((prefix (funcall gnus-move-group-prefix-function
gnus-newsgroup-name)))
(let ((trash (concat prefix "[Gmail]/Trash")))
(gnus-summary-move-article nil trash))))
(gnus-define-keys gnus-summary-mode-map
"\C-c\C-g" noorul/move-to-gmail-trash)
Also lots of gnus imap development is going on now. The latest dev build
fetches imap mail faster. But still B m is quiet slow. I hope new work
will give gnus a better future.
Thanks and Regards
Noorul
