Puneeth Chaganti 9:33 PM Hi everyone.

Puneeth Chaganti 9:36 PM I use imapfilter for my non-gmail account.
Diego Berrocal 9:36 PM what about the gmail one?
Will Monroe 9:36 PM these are excellent suggestions for a new gnus user Puneeth, thank you for org2blog!
Puneeth Chaganti 9:37 PM I don’t yet use gmail with mu4e. Just not sure how long downloading all my mail would take.
Diego Berrocal 9:38 PM https://mosh.mit.edu/#techinfo ^ better ssh
Will Monroe 9:39 PM Puneeth, I’ve used mu4e with offlineimap to download lots of gmail. It did take a lot of time for ~4GB to download.
Puneeth Chaganti 9:40 PM Yeah, I’m also subscribed to a lot of lists that are filterd out using email filters, but I’m afraid getting new mail also would be really slow. I have a better internet connection these days. May be I should try.
Diego Berrocal 9:41 PM doesn’t gnus freeze your emacs sometimes?
me 9:41 PM I’ve been using gmane.org for many mailing lists. The web interface has been a bit wonky, but the NNTP through Gnus seems okay.
