I use fetchmail (cygwin) + gnus to read my email, however, gnus
refuses to convert mbox generated by fetchmail to nnml. My .gnus looks
like this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
(setq
user-full-name "najja"
user-mail-address "sumnerbarney@gmail.com"
display-time-mail-file "c:/var/spool/mail/Administrator"
message-default-charset `utf-8
nnml-directory "c:/GnusMail/"
mail-sources '((file :path "c:/var/spool/mail/Administrator"))
gnus-select-method '(nnml ""))
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
So none of the path deals with drive other than c:, but when I run
gnus by "M-x gnus", it shows a cryptic error:
Movemail: Permission denied for d://(1 return). Continue? Yes or No.
No matter what I choose, it won't convert c:/var/spool/mail/
Administrator to c:/GnusMail.
My HOME enviroment variable is pointed to D:. After I changed it to
C: , gnus successfully converted c:/var/spool/mail/Administrator to c:/
var/spool/mail/Administrator but nothing shows up in the {nnml}
server.
Anyone here use fetchmail + gnus scheme? How do you make it work?
