>From 9d4359a72cd042a6357773c62fb70fc0c678a3cf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Abrahamsen Date: Sat, 4 Dec 2021 12:37:14 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Use gnus-error to report mail-source failures * lisp/gnus/mail-source.el (mail-source-fetch): Instead of querying the user on mail sources errors -- in effect asking "do you want to continue, or halt the process?" -- log the error with `gnus-error', severity 5. The query didn't provide any meaningful control; error reporting is all that's needed. (mail-source-ignore-errors): Obsolete this option; users can see the error or not by configuring `gnus-verbose'. * doc/misc/gnus.texi (Mail Source Customization): Remove mention of the above option from the manual. --- doc/misc/gnus.texi | 4 ---- lisp/gnus/mail-source.el | 19 +++++++------------ 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/misc/gnus.texi b/doc/misc/gnus.texi index a18afec02e..6ffc057ba1 100644 --- a/doc/misc/gnus.texi +++ b/doc/misc/gnus.texi @@ -15447,10 +15447,6 @@ Mail Source Customization files.
