Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/25.0.92 (gnu/linux) |
My main machine is called "london" and gets its system emails from
'(setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/boudiccas")'.
I have a second machine functioning as a fileserver called "norwich". It
is generating system emails, but how do I access them using gnus please?
I've looked at the gnus manual and this seemed to fit -
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq mail-sources '((pop :server "norwich" :user "boztu")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
except its not a pop server.
So I've tried this -
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq mail-sources '((file :server "norwich" :path "/var/mail/boztu")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Which doesn't seem to be read by gnus at all! Although this does work -
╭────
│(setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/mail/boudiccas")
╰────
How then can I read the emails from "norwich" using gnus on "london"
please?
Thanks
Sharon.
