[Sorry for the previous abbreviated reply---I suppose an early send is bound to happen when you give me a new function with a "C-c C-c" binding. ;-)] On Tue, 24 Nov 2009 09:02:46 +0100, Tassilo Horn <tassilo@member.fsf.org> wrote: > I'm a Gnus user and use notmuch mostly for searching.

I've been hoping to be able to get some advice from gnus users. I want to figure out how to get gnus support for viewing encrypted messages, etc. Do you happen to know some good documentation for how to get started with gnus for reading mail? I'd be happy even with the bare minimum to just get gnus to view one single message from out of my mail store. (Which is something I tried to figure out from the gnus manual, but I never succeeded at.) > Therefore, I created this small snippet.

And this would be exactly the thing I would want for exploring gnus, if only I could get it working. If I just try to run it, I get: Symbol's function definition is void: org-gnus-follow-link And I suppose that's expected since I don't have gnus "running". If I try to start gnus with "M-x gnus", I get: Unable to open server nntp+news, go offline? (y or n) What's the simplest way for me to tell gnus that I won't be using it in any other way than with the "nnimap+" folder I can tell you're using in your snippet? > BTW, why does `notmuch-show-get-message-id' prefix the message-id with > "id:"? That's to make the returned value a valid search string for sake of "notmuch search". Compare to the way `notmuch-search-find-thread-id' includes a "thread:" prefix. -Carl
