How do others do this? Is everybody cultivating his own private archive of emacs-devel?
You can use `eww' to get the message-id: I) M-x: eww https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/ RET ;; Do a search of some words related with the topic you are looking for. ;; For instance, Search emacs-devel using gnus ;; Let's pick up the first result: M-x eww-view-source RET ;; Go to beginning of buffer. You can get the Message-id and ;; several cross reference. II) Now, you can call `gnus-summary-goto-article' with first arg the message ID in I). j MESSAGE-ID RET For short threads is OK, but for long threads, sometimes is time consuming to get the right message id.
