Subject: Fixing slowness of following Gnus links to IMAP articles (was: Behavior of Gnus when called from an hyperlink)
Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2010 08:45:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87aapdzalm.fsf_-_@thinkpad.tsdh.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 87wrsoy5b2.fsf@mundaneum.com

Hi Sébastien,

I'm trying to add a workaround to org-gnus.el which should save the
slowness of querying the IMAP server by looking up the article number in
the group's .overview file.  But since I don't have nnimap groups, we
have to play some question & answer game. ;-)

Please apply this patch and set
`org-gnus-nnimap-query-article-no-from-file' to t.

Then follow some org link to a message in a nnimap group.  This will be
slow as usual, but produce some output in *Messages* that I need to go
ahead.  In that buffer, there should be 4 key-value pairs "<var> =
<value>".  Please poste these here.

Bye,
Tassilo
