GNU Info (gnus)Not Reading MailNot Reading Mail ---------------- If you start using any of the mail back ends, they have the annoying habit of assuming that you want to read mail with them. This might not be unreasonable, but it might not be what you want. If you set `mail-sources' and `nnmail-spool-file' to `nil', none of the back ends will ever attempt to read incoming mail, which should help. This might be too much, if, for instance, you are reading mail quite happily with `nnml' and just want to peek at some old RMAIL file you have stashed away with `nnbabyl'. All back ends have variables called back-end-`get-new-mail'. If you want to disable the `nnbabyl' mail reading, you edit the virtual server for the group to have a setting where `nnbabyl-get-new-mail' to `nil'. All the mail back ends will call `nn'*`-prepare-save-mail-hook' narrowed to the article to be saved before saving it when reading incoming mail. automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
