Tweaking.

[Sharon Kimble]

I now have a working system with just a few things to be sorted out,
which are -

* Summary line format
 gnus-summary-line-format "%0{%U%R%z%}%3{│%} %1{%d%} %3{│%}%4{%-20,20f%}  
%3{│%} %1{%B%}%s\n"

gives this in the summary -
R. │ 23-Mar │  Cron Daemon           │ * Cron <root@london> /usr/bin/apt-get 
update

which is very good except its not showing the time of posting. How do I get 
that please?

I did try - 
   gnus-summary-line-format "%0{%U%R%z%}%3{│%} %1{%o%} %3{│%}  %4{%-20,20f%}  
%3{│%} %1{%B%}%s\n"

 ie this - {%o%} but that just resulted in a hideous mess, so I reverted it!

* Headers
I have this in my 'gnus-testing.el'
(setq gnus-visible-headers 
'("^From:\\|^Newsgroups:\\|^Subject:\\|^Date:\\|^To:")
      gnus-sorted-header-list gnus-visible-headers
          )

but that is still leaving me with headers like these-

What I'm looking for in my mail & newsgroups headers is just "From - | 
Newsgroup/Mail - | Date+time -| Subject - | To -", ie just the basics. 

I've been looking things up in 'gnus.info' but haven't found anything yet that 
fits the bill. 

Thanks for all of the help that I have received so far, it is appreciated and 
it is helping me get a working system.

Sharon.
