I am a long-time user of RMAIL in emacs. Now I am having to move to
IMAP (ANU having discontinued POP access), and have today learnt
enough about gnus to see my mail therein; and am struggling to regain
the functionality I had with RMAIL.
I have looked found two threads here which are right on one of my problems:
Re: gnus-get-new-news with IMAP doesn't
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnus-english/2005-03/msg00089.html
Re: How to get new mail without leaving Summary buffer?
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnus-english/2005-03/msg00200.html
but the suggestions there don't work for me (partly because I am
using emacs over ssh so I don't control what software is on the host).
When I try to get new mail from the IMAP server, using M-g say, I get the error
"Ephemeral groups can't be reselected"
The host uses Gnus v5.9.0 and
GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (sparc-sun-solaris2.9)
Has anyone been down this path or can point me out of this?!
