Top Document: Gnus (Emacs Newsreader) FAQ Previous Document: Q3.8 Evil nntp Next Document: Q3.10 Gnus hangs when I try to send a post to my news server. What is wrong and what can I do to fix it? See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Reading news off of multiple news servers is great, but posting to foreign servers fails. What do I do? Give a prefix to the posting command. That is, type C-u C-c C-c instead of C-c C-c. This will be changed in the near future so that postings will go to the server that the group is being read from when no prefix is given. Steinar Bang <sb@metis.no> suggests a workaround until then: Put the following in ~/.emacs or ~/.gnus: ;; Hack for posting on foreign servers (add-hook 'message-setup-hook (lambda () (local-set-key "\C-c\C-c" 'message-send-and-exit-with-prefix))) (defun message-send-and-exit-with-prefix () "Call the message-send-and-exit function with a positive number argument to make it post the message on the foreign NNTP server of a group, instead of the default NNTP server" (interactive) (message-send-and-exit 1)) User Contributions:Top Document: Gnus (Emacs Newsreader) FAQ Previous Document: Q3.8 Evil nntp Next Document: Q3.10 Gnus hangs when I try to send a post to my news server.
