I own a fairly standard Gmail account, and read it though IMAP in gnus. The resulting group name is for example "gnus:nnimap+gmailPerso:[Gmail]/Sent Mail". Whenever I want to make a link to it, the link content would be, for exemple : "gnus:nnimap%2BgmailPerso:%5BGmail%5D/Sent%20Mail#1414" which is the same with the brackets encoded and a message id. Unfortunatly, this link would not open in gnus. It will apparently try to find a group called "gnus:nnimap+gmailPerso:[Gmail" (this is, stop at closing bracket) and will fail. Any idea on how to solve that please ? As a workaround, I'd be happy to be able to rename groups to something shorter, but I can't figure how (this is an OT gnus question). I'm using GNU/Emacs 23 cvs of today, with bundled Gnus 5.13 and latest org-mode. -- Paul
