Subject: struggling with gnus imap
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 11:13:45 -0330	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <y65skolmtlq.fsf@minnie.esd.mun.ca> (raw)

Hello,

I'm (still) trying to get gnus to let me use IMAP to read my email on
our university server.

I have this in .gnus:

(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods 
      '(
	(nnml "") 
	(nnimap "mail.mun.ca" (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX")))
	))

When I try to subscribe using U in the *Group* buffer I get this:

gnus-select-newsgroup: Couldn't activate group mail.mun.ca: 411 No
such group mail.mun.ca

I also tried subscribing to INBOX, with the same result.  Can someone
tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Roger
