From d15d72b27de3db2f7e49398c7d3da9465b774398 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Abrahamsen Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 10:28:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Check Gnus group names when reading from browse server * lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el (gnus-browse-read-group): If the group in question belongs to the native server, the name has to be shortened before we check it with `gnus-get-info'. It might work otherwise with nntp, but for backends like nnmaildir that have their own accounting system, creating an ephemeral group won't work. --- lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el b/lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el index dfca5e9d2cb..34ebd00ef24 100644 --- a/lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el +++ b/lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el @@ -925,7 +925,11 @@ buffer.
