I tried S O m, and it inserts all messages into the
one rfc822 sub-part, with a short description at the top.
I don't think this is valid rfc822, which AFAIK:
- contains only *one* message.
- starts with rfc822 headers.
So, it looks like mutt still excels in the area of forwarding
multiple messages, mime encoded, and forwarding attachments that are
signed/encrypted.
Does Gnus support Maildir format? Not that I could see, but
perhaps I was looking at an out-of-date version.
Hopefully these features will soon be added to PGnus...
Oh..., BTW..., is there anyway to save a list of messages to *a* mbox
file? I tried marking messages with '#', and the pushing C-o, but Gnus
asked me for each message what file I wanted to save it to...
Apart from these problems, PGnus seems to be very good. I might even try
to free up enough disk space on this computer, so I can install it ;-)
Another question: When does Gnus delete messages that have expired?
Obviously, it can't delete them if you not currently running PGnus, but
does it do it when it first loads? When you enter and/or leave a group?
Or when? I tried to find this in the documentation, but couldn't.
