Subject: Gnus: caching message headers?
Date: Mon, 07 Sep 2020 15:23:32 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.NEB.2.22.394.2009071659260453.25746@sdf.lonestar.org> (raw)
Hi list,
I'm trying to configure Gnus to access my email through IMAP.
I'm too accustomed to traditional MUAs to switch to the "Gnus way" in one
step, so I have:
(setq gnus-permanently-visible-groups ".*")
(setq gnus-parameters
'((".*"
(gnus-show-threads nil)
(gnus-use-scoring nil)
(gnus-article-sort-functions '(gnus-article-sort-by-number))
(display . all))))
I would like to have, in the *Summary*, a complete list of the emails
contained in a folder when I hit RET on its label. Each time I do this
however, Gnus asks me how many articles I want to retrieve, and issues a
"UID FETCH 1:N (UID RFC822.SIZE BODYSTRUCTURE BODY.PEEK[HEADER.FIELDS
(...)])" IMAP command, which can take quite some time to complete when N
is large.
Is there a way to convince Gnus to cache the result of that command
(without caching all emails), and to issue a command only for the new
UIDs? Caching the result of that command should not eat too much disk
space.
I apologize in advance if that question is naïve, or if I missed some part
of the manual.
Gregory
