188 @chapter Start up Wanderlust
191 The necessary procedure for starting Wanderlust is explained in steps
194 (Of course, you need a mail/news readable environment in advance)
197 * MIME Modules:: Installing the MIME modules.
198 * Download:: Download and extract the packages.
199 * Install:: Byte-compile and install.
200 * Minimal Settings:: @file{.emacs} setup.
201 * Mail Addresses:: Address book definition.
202 * Folder Definition:: Folder definition.
203 * Start Wanderlust:: Starting Wanderlust
207 @node MIME Modules, Download, Start Me Up, Start Me Up
208 @section Installing MIME modules
215 SEMI or tm must be installed to make Wanderlust work correctly.
217 SEMI does not run on Emacs 19.28 or earlier
218 @footnote{SEMI runs on Emacs 19.34. @*
219 @uref{http://www.jpl.org/elips/INSTALL-SEMI-ja.html} describes how to.},
220 so you must install tm, the predecessor of SEMI. (tm version 8.7 or later
223 However, SEMI is recommended because of its wider functionality.
225 Refer to the documents of each package for detailed installation procedure.
227 SEMI and tm can be downloaded from these sites:
231 SEMI: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/semi/
232 tm: http://cvs.m17n.org/tomo/comp/emacsen/tm/tm-8/
236 You need packages named APEL and FLIM to use SEMI.
237 You can download APEL and FLIM from following URLs:
241 APEL: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/apel/
242 FLIM: ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/flim/
246 You have to install APEL, FLIM and SEMI in this order. Generally
247 @samp{make install} will do the job. (In XEmacs 21, @samp{make
250 Recommended combination of APEL, FLIM and SEMI are following:
253 @item APEL 10.2, FLIM 1.13.2 and SEMI 1.13.7
256 You can also use many other FLIM/SEMI variants. Combination of the
257 latest versions should work. For example, following combination is
261 @item APEL 10.2, Chao 1.14.1, REMI 1.14.2
262 @item APEL 10.2, SLIM 1.14.3, EMY 1.13.9
265 You have to re-install Wanderlust if you upgraded APEL, FLIM, SEMI or
269 @node Download, Install, MIME Modules, Start Me Up
270 @section Download and Extract the Package
273 You can download Wanderlust package from following sites:
277 ftp://ftp.gohome.org/wl/
280 Mirrored ftp/http sites:
284 ftp://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/GNU/elisp/ftp.gohome.org/wl/
285 http://www.jpl.org/elips/wl/

287 ftp://ftp.ring.gr.jp/pub/text/elisp/wl/
288 ftp://opaopa.org/pub/mirror/elisp/wl/
289 @c ftp://roguelife.org/pub/tsumura/wl/
293 Extract the obtained package to your working directory:
298 % tar zxvf wl-@var{version}.tar.gz
299 % cd wl-@var{version}
303 @subsection To use SSL (Secure Socket Layer)
308 SSL (Secure Socket Layer) can be used for
309 SMTP, IMAP, NNTP and POP connections in Wanderlust.
311 There are two ways to use SSL. One is to start SSL negotiation just
312 after the connection establishment (generic way). The other one is to
313 start SSL negotiation by invoking STARTTLS command in the each session.
315 To use the formal SSL (generic SSL), you must install @file{ssl.el} in
316 the @file{utils} directory. OpenSSL command @command{openssl} is also
317 required to use @file{ssl.el}. You must set @env{PATH} to the directory
318 that OpenSSL commands are installed.
320 To use the latter SSL(STARTTLS), you must install starttls package in
322 You can download starttls package from the following site.
325 ftp://opaopa.org/pub/elisp/
328 @node Install, Minimal Settings, Download, Start Me Up
329 @section Byte-compile and install
336 @subsection Installation
338 Edit @code{LISPDIR} and @code{EMACS} in @file{Makefile}.
339 Set the Emacs's command name to @code{EMACS}.
340 Set package installation directory to @code{LISPDIR}.
341 Then, please execute following commands.
350 Destination directory is auto-probed if you leave @code{LISPDIR}
351 in @file{Makefile} as is. (That is, leave it as @samp{NONE})
353 If you are using an Emacs variant which does not merge specified directory
354 to @code{load-path} (e.g. Mule 2.3 based on Emacs 19.28),
355 then you will see the error message:
358 Cannot open load file: mime-setup
362 In this case, either add destination directories of custom, APEL, FLIM
363 and SEMI to environmental variable @env{EMACSLOADPATH}, or define
364 @code{load-path} in @file{WL-CFG} in extracted directory.
366 If you want to use BBDB, then the necessary modules are byte-compiled
367 and installed when BBDB directory is added to @code{load-path}.
370 @subsection @file{WL-CFG}
372 Contents of the file @file{WL-CFG} is loaded under installation if a file
373 with that name exists in extracted directory. You can use @file{WL-CFG} to
374 configure @code{load-path} to extra packages such as SEMI if needed.
376 If you want to specify the install directory of Wanderlust related
377 files, then set following variables in @file{WL-CFG}
381 A directory to install WL modules.
382 This directory is relative directory from @code{LISPDIR}.
383 WL modules include @file{wl*.el}, @file{wl*.elc} files.
384 @c Modules under the directory @file{util/} are also installed if
385 @c it detected as necessary.
388 A directory to install ELMO modules.
389 This directory is relative directory from @code{LISPDIR}.
390 ELMO modules include @file{elmo*.el}, @file{elmo*.elc} files.
391 @c @file{utf7.el}, @file{utf7.elc} are also included in the ELMO.
395 Default value of @code{WL_PREFIX} and @code{ELMO_PREFIX} are @file{wl}.
397 If you want to install ELMO related files under a sub-directory
398 such as "elmo" then add following to @file{WL-CFG}:
401 (setq ELMO_PREFIX "elmo")
404 @subsection Install as a XEmacs package
405 @cindex XEmacs package
406 @cindex XEmacs package install
407 @cindex Package, XEmacs
408 @cindex Package install, XEmacs
409 @c @cindex install-package
411 It is possible to install Wanderlust as one of packages of XEmacs (21.0
412 or later). Configuration for autoload and icon-path in local
413 @file{~/.emacs} files are no longer necessary, if you install Wanderlust
416 Follow the next example to install Wanderlust as an XEmacs package.
422 % make install-package
426 package directory is auto-probed, if SEMI is installed.
427 (you can also specify it with @code{PACKAGEDIR} in @file{Makefile})
429 @subsection Run in place
431 If wl and elmo directories are defined in @code{load-path}, then
432 byte-compilation and installation are not necessary to start Wanderlust.
433 For example, if package is extracted in @file{~/work}, Wanderlust can be
434 invoked with following setting in @file{~/.emacs}.
438 (add-to-list 'load-path "~/work/wl-@var{version}/wl")
439 (add-to-list 'load-path "~/work/wl-@var{version}/elmo")
445 Manual is described in Info format. Please do following.
454 If you install Wanderlust as a XEmacs package, Info file is already
455 installed too, so there are no need of these commands.
457 Manual directory is automatically detected. Of course, it can be
458 configured by @code{INFODIR} in @file{Makefile}.
460 You can read manual at the following URL:
463 http://www.gohome.org/wl/doc/wl-euc_toc.html
466 @node Minimal Settings, Mail Addresses, Install, Start Me Up
467 @section Set up .emacs
468 @cindex Minimal Settings
470 @cindex Configuration
474 The Wanderlust package contains two module groups.
477 @item ELMO (elmo-*.el)
478 These modules show everything as folders. This is the back-end for WL.
480 These modules controls the behavior of main body of Wanderlust.
481 They are also the front-end for ELMO.
484 You can customize the behavior of Wanderlust by changing the value
485 of environmental variables which begins with @code{elmo-} and @code{wl-}.
487 The minimal requirement for settings is as the following.
491 ;; @r{The setting to use SEMI/tm}
494 ;; @r{autoload configuration}
495 ;; @r{(These are not required if Wanderlust is installed as XEmacs package)}
496 (autoload 'wl "wl" "Wanderlust" t)
497 (autoload 'wl-draft "wl-draft" "Write draft with Wanderlust." t)
499 ;; @r{Directory where icons are placed (XEmacs or Emacs 21).}
500 ;; @r{Default: @code{nil}.}
501 ;; @r{(This is not required if Wanderlust is installed as XEmacs package)}
502 (setq wl-icon-dir "~/work/wl/etc")
504 ;; @r{SMTP server for mail posting. Default: @code{nil}}
505 (setq wl-smtp-posting-server "your.smtp.server.com")
506 ;; @r{NNTP server for news posting. Default: @code{nil}}
507 (setq wl-nntp-posting-server "your.nntp.server.com")
511 @file{~/.wl} is automatically loaded when Wanderlust starts up (if such a
512 file exists). So it is convenient to gather Wanderlust specific settings
513 in @file{~/.wl}. Settings for "face" must be written in @file{~/.wl},
514 because you can't write them in @file{.emacs}
515 (if you write it to @file{.emacs}, you'll get an error).
518 All above described settings except (load "mime-setup") and autoload
519 configuration can be written in
522 @subsection @code{mail-user-agent}
523 @cindex Default Mailer
524 @cindex Mailer, Default
525 @vindex mail-user-agent
528 If you write following setting in you @file{.emacs}, you can
529 start Wanderlust draft mode by typing @kbd{C-x m} (@code{compose-mail}).
530 This means it enables you to run Wanderlust as a default mail composer
533 It is effective only when your Emacs can define @code{mail-user-agent}.
534 @xref{Mail Methods, , ,emacs-ja, The Emacs Editor}.
538 (autoload 'wl-user-agent-compose "wl-draft" nil t)
539 (if (boundp 'mail-user-agent)

552 @node Mail Addresses, Folder Definition, Minimal Settings, Start Me Up
553 @section Address book
554 @cindex Address book Definition
556 @cindex Alias, Address
558 The file @file{~/.addresses} is a simple address book for Wanderlust.
559 Make address file @file{~/.addresses}, and edit to suit your requirement.
561 The data written in @file{~/.addresses} are used for address completion
562 under draft editing mode. Furthermore, they are used when showing names
563 in summary display mode. You can safely skip this section, if you don't
564 want to customize address completion and summary display.
565 It is possible to add/change/remove addresses from @file{~/.addresses} in
566 summary buffer after Wanderlust is invoked. @refill
568 The format is very simple. Like this. @refill
573 # @r{Lines begin with @samp{#} are comment.}
574 # @r{Empty lines are ignored}
576 # @r{Format of each line:}
577 # @var{email-address} "@var{nickname} "@var{realname}"
579 teranisi@@gohome.org "Yuuichi" "Yuuichi Teranishi"
580 foo@@bar.gohome.org "Mr. Foo" "John Foo"
581 bar@@foo.gohome.org "Mr. Bar" "Michael Bar"
586 One line defines one persons description.
588 Actually, in default setup, @var{nickname} is used in summary-mode and
589 @var{realname} is used in draft preparation mode. This behavior is
590 better understood if you try it and confirmed the function first. You
591 can write and try a small definition, so you will know the idea of the
592 address book before writing a big one.
594 And, if MH alias file is specified in variable @code{wl-alias-file},
595 it is used as an address information in the draft preparation mode.
597 If variable @code{wl-use-ldap} is non-nil (initial setting is
598 @code{nil}), address completion in draft mode uses LDAP information.
600 If you use LDAP, you have to set @code{wl-ldap-server},
601 @code{wl-ldap-port} and @code{wl-ldap-base} properly. If your emacs does
602 not have LDAP feature as built-in feature (Currently only XEmacs can
603 have built-in LDAP feature), you have to set command exec @env{PATH} to
604 the program @command{ldapsearch}.
606 @node Folder Definition, Start Wanderlust, Mail Addresses, Start Me Up
607 @section Folder Definition
608 @cindex Folder Definition
611 You can skip this section because it is possible to add/edit the
612 subscribe folders from the buffer for list of folders.
614 Define the folders you want to subscribe in file @file{~/.folders}. The
615 contents written in @file{~/.folders} become the folders which you
616 subscribe to as it is.
618 Format for @file{~/.folders} is very simple. Here is an example:
623 # @r{Lines begin with @samp{#} are comment.}
624 # @r{Empty lines are ignored}
626 # @var{folder name} "@var{folder nickname}"
627 # @r{(nicknames are not necessary)}
632 %#mh/Backup@@my.imap.server.com "Sent"
635 %#mh/spool/wl "Wanderlust ML"
636 %#mh/spool/elips "ELIPS ML"

643 # @r{If folder name ends with @samp{/}, that means an `access group',}
644 # @r{all subfolders automatically included in one folder group.}
646 %#mh/expire@@localhost /
647 # @r{All MH folders are included in one folder group.}
652 Each line contains one folder you want to read. The definition of
653 folders will be explained in detail in the next section.
655 The part surrounded by @samp{@var{group name}@{} and @samp{@}} will
656 become one folder group. One folder group is treated as a directory
657 which can bed opened and closed in folder mode. It is convenient for
658 collecting some folders and putting them in order.
660 Please note that @samp{@var{group name}@{} and @samp{@}} occupies one
661 line and you have to write it that way (It is because the parser sucks).
663 There are two types of groups. One is like @samp{Emacsen} from above
664 example which the user chooses his favorite folders as a group.
666 The other one is @dfn{access group} like @samp{+} from above example.
667 It makes all the sub-folders in a folder to a group. (It differs from
668 the type of the folder. For example, @samp{+} makes entire MH
669 sub-directories to one group)
671 This behavior is better understood if you try it and confirmed the
672 function first. You can write and try a small folder definition, so you
673 will know the idea of the folder function before writing the real one.

679 If installation and configuration worked well, you can invoke Wanderlust by
680 typing following command in Emacs.
687 After initialization, Folder Mode which shows the list of folders will appear.
688 That means the folders you defined in the @file{~/.folders} are listed
689 If you start Wanderlust with prefix argument like @kbd{C-u M-x wl}, you
690 can skip folder checking.

694 @chapter Wanderlust's folders
697 This chapter describes the folder types which Wanderlust is able to handle.
699 Wanderlust uses ELMO as it's interface, so every folder types supported
700 by ELMO is usable in Wanderlust.
702 As of version @value{VERSION}, 10 types of folders are predefined. These are
703 IMAP, NNTP, LocalDir(MH), News Spool, POP, Archive, Multi, Filter, Pipe
704 and Internal folder types.
707 * IMAP Folder:: @samp{%} -- IMAP folder
708 * NNTP Folder:: @samp{-} -- NNTP folder
709 * MH Folder:: @samp{+} -- MH folder
710 * Maildir Folder:: @samp{.} -- Maildir folder
711 * News Spool Folder:: @samp{=} -- News spool folder
712 * Archive Folder:: @samp{$} -- Archive folder
713 * POP Folder:: @samp{&} -- POP folder
714 * Multi Folder:: @samp{*} -- Multi folder
715 * Filter Folder:: @samp{/} -- Filter folder
716 * Pipe Folder:: @samp{|} -- Pipe folder
717 * Internal Folder:: @samp{'} -- Internal folder
721 @node IMAP Folder, NNTP Folder, Folders, Folders
728 A folder to access e-mails via IMAP4rev1 protocol (RFC 2060).
734 @samp{%} @var{mailbox} [@samp{:} @var{username} [@samp{/} @var{authenticate-type}]][@samp{@@} @var{hostname}][@samp{:} @var{port}][@samp{!}]
738 You can specify @code{login} (encoded password transmission),
739 @code{cram-md5} (CRAM-MD5 authentication), @code{digest-md5} (DIGEST-MD5
740 authentication) or @code{clear} (or @code{nil}, plain password
741 transmission) as @var{authenticate-type}. (To use CRAM-MD5 or
742 DIGEST-MD5 authentication, you must install @file{utils/sasl} package.)
747 @var{username} -> The value of @code{elmo-default-imap4-user}.
748 Initial setting is @env{USER} environment variable or
749 @env{LOGNAME} environment variable or return value of
750 @code{(user-login-name)}.
751 @var{authenticate-type} -> The value of @code{elmo-default-imap4-authenticate-type}.
752 Initial setting is "auth".
753 @var{hostname} -> The value of @code{elmo-default-imap4-server}.
754 Initial setting is "localhost".
755 @var{port} -> The value of @code{elmo-default-imap4-port}.
756 Initial setting is 143.
759 You can omit the @var{hostname} from folder names if you set
760 @code{elmo-default-imap4-server} as your main IMAP server.
761 For example, you can specify a folder as @samp{foo%imap@@gateway} even
762 if you have to go through a firewall.
764 SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connection will be used if a folder name ends
765 with @samp{!}. Or, if the value of @code{elmo-default-imap4-stream-type}
766 is non-nil, SSL will be the default connection. If a folder name ends
767 with @samp{!!}, STARTTLS connection will be established. If the value
768 of @code{elmo-default-imap4-stream-type} is @code{starttls}, STARTTLS
769 will be the default connection.
771 If you specify @code{login}, @code{cram-md5} or @code{digest-md5} as
772 authentication method, the password is sent in encoded form. But, if
773 your server is unable to receive an encoded password, authentication
774 will fall back to @code{clear} (that is, sending password in raw format)

794 @subsection International mailbox names (Modified UTF7)
795 @cindex Modified UTF7
802 You can use international mailbox names in @var{mailbox} part, if you
803 are using Emacs which can treat unicode and
804 @code{elmo-imap4-use-modified-utf7} is set to non-nil value (default
805 value is @code{nil}).
807 Currently, following Emacsen can treat unicode.
810 @item Emacs 20.3 or later + Mule-UCS
812 If you installed Mule-UCS package, Emacs can treat unicode.
813 You can obtain Mule-UCS package from following URL.
816 ftp://ftp.m17n.org/pub/mule/Mule-UCS/
819 @item XEmacs 21.2.13 or later + ucs-conv package
821 By default, XEmacs 21 cannot treat unicodes, but if you installed
822 ucs-conv package, it can.
823 You can obtain ucs-conv package from following anonymous CVS.
827 cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/root login
828 Password: @var{NULL} (Just enter return key)
829 cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/root checkout ucs-conv
833 You also need utf7 conversion programs, @command{u7tou8} and
834 @command{u8tou7} to use international mailbox name in the current
835 XEmacs. These programs are included in the UTF7 package which can be
836 obtained from following URL.

843 @node NNTP Folder, MH Folder, IMAP Folder, Folders
848 A folder to access USENET news via NNTP protocol (RFC 977).
849 One newsgroup is treated as a folder.
855 @samp{-} @var{newsgroup} [[@samp{:} @var{username}][@samp{@@} @var{hostname}][@samp{:} @var{port}]][@samp{!}]

864 Initial setting is @code{nil}.
865 @var{port} -> The value of @code{elmo-default-nntp-port}.
866 Initial setting is 119.
869 AUTHINFO is used as authentication method if the @var{username} is non-nil.
870 SSL will be default method if @code{elmo-default-nntp-stream-type} is non-nil even
871 if the folder name doesn't end with @samp{!}.
872 If a folder name ends with @samp{!!}, STARTTLS connection will be established.
873 if the value of @code{elmo-default-nntp-stream-type} is @code{starttls},
874 STARTTLS will be the default connection.

885 @node MH Folder, Maildir Folder, NNTP Folder, Folders
891 A folder to access MH format mail (1 file is 1 mail).
896 @samp{+} @var{directory-name}
899 Normally, @var{directory-name} is an relative path to the variable
900 @code{elmo-localdir-folder-path} (default is @file{~/Mail}), but if it
901 starts with @samp{/} or @samp{~}, then it is treated as an absolute path
902 (this is also true for drive-letters).
904 Message number is used for the name of the message file.
910 +inbox -> @file{~/Mail/inbox}
911 +from/teranisi -> @file{~/Mail/from/teranisi}
912 +~/test -> @file{~/test}
916 @node Maildir Folder, News Spool Folder, MH Folder, Folders
917 @section Maildir Folder
918 @cindex Maildir Folder
922 A folder to access to Maildir format (1 file is 1 mail).
927 @samp{.} [@var{directory-name}]
930 Normally, @var{directory-name} is a relative path to the variable
931 @code{elmo-maildir-folder-path} (default is @file{~/Maildir}), but if it
932 starts with @samp{/} or @samp{~}, then it is treated as an absolute path
933 (this is also true for drive-letters).
935 Maildir contains @file{cur}, @file{new} and @file{tmp} subdirectories.
936 Messages are contained in the @file{cur} directory. All message files
937 in the @file{new} directory are moved to @file{cur} directory when you
938 access to the folder. All message files contained in the @file{tmp}
939 directory and not accessed for 36 hours are deleted.
941 This behavior conforms to the @uref{http://cr.yp.to/proto/maildir.html}.
947 . -> @file{~/Maildir}

961 This folder handles locally saved news articles which are proposed by
962 Mew/IM. You can also read articles directly from a spool-file which is
963 retrieved by an utility like @command{gnspool}.
968 @samp{=} @var{directory-name}
971 @var{directory-name} is a sub-directory to the directory defined by
972 variable @code{elmo-localnews-folder-path} (default is @file{~/News})
973 You can use @samp{.} as directory delimiter as well as @samp{/}.

992 such as Info-ZIP or LHA, as one folder.
998 @samp{$} @var{path-name} [@samp{;} @var{archiver-type} @samp{;} @var{prefix}]
1002 @var{path-name} is the relative path from
1003 @code{elmo-archive-folder-path} (initial setting is @file{~/Mail}). If
1004 @var{path-name} begins with @samp{/} or @samp{~} or `drive-letter of
1005 DOS', @var{path-name} is treated as absolute path. ange-ftp format is
1006 also permitted under the environment of ange-ftp, efs.
1008 The actual file name of the archive folder is
1009 @code{elmo-archive-basename} (Initial setting is @file{elmo-archive})
1010 under the @var{path-name}. If a file named @var{path-name} exists, it is
1011 treated as folder. The suffix is automatically decided for
1012 @var{archiver-type}.
1014 If @var{archiver-type} is omitted, @code{elmo-archive-default-type}
1015 (Initial setting is @code{zip}) is referred.
1017 @var{prefix} specifies the internal directory structure of the archive.
1018 For example, if the ML server is fml, @file{msend.tar.gz} has a
1019 structure like @file{spool/1}, so you have to specify @samp{spool} as
1026 $teranisi -> @file{~/Mail/teranisi/elmo-archive.zip}
1027 $bsd/freebsd;lha -> @file{~/Mail/bsd/freebsd/elmo-archive.lzh}
1028 $/foo@@server:~/bar;zoo -> @file{~/bar/elmo-archive.zoo} on ftp server

1051 By default, following archives are supported.
1055 LHA, Info-ZIP/UNZIP, ZOO, RAR ;; full-access
1056 GNU TAR('tgz, 'tar) ;; read-only
1060 If your archiver can include multiple files in one archive, you have a
1061 possibility use it as an archiver of Wanderlust (ARJ/UNARJ, ARC is one
1062 of the candidate. TAR is supported read-only because it cannot delete
1063 file in the archive (@code{mv})).
1065 @command{gzip}, @command{bzip}, @command{bzip2} cannot be used as an
1066 archiver of Wanderlust because they cannot include multiple
1067 files. Archivers that cannot extract files to standard output are also

1118 @cindex Archive Tips
1120 For comfortable migration, usage of @code{wl-summary-archive}
1121 (@pxref{Archive}) or Expire (@pxref{Expire}) is recommended. To treat
1122 archive folders created by expiration, you must set non-nil value to
1123 @code{elmo-archive-treat-file}.
1125 On the OS/2, there is a great difference between Mule2.3(19.28) and Emacs20.2
1126 in processing speed. For comfortable use, Emacs20 is recommended.
1127 (If re-search's performance is the problem, 19.3x or later may be okay.)
1129 If many files are included in one archive,
1130 it takes long time to access to the archive folder because
1131 archiver starting overhead is increased (especially LHA).

1203 The initial setting is 8000.
1205 Max length of command line argument for external archiver program.
1206 Emacs does not have a limit of command line byte length, but some OS
1207 (e.x OS/2) have. It depends on the OS. Archive folder is affected by
1208 this limit because it calls external archiver program directly (not
1209 called via shell). For example, you cannot delete messages if archiver
1210 program must receive larger bytes of arguments to delete. OS/2 have a
1211 command line argument limit of 8190 bytes, so we defined default as 8000
1214 However, you don't have an influence of command line argument limit
1215 if the archiver has `actions' to receive target file information from
1216 standard input (@code{rm-pipe}, @code{mv-pipe}, @code{cat-headers} action).

1925 @cindex Folder, Subscribe
1926 @cindex Folder, Unsubscribe
1928 As described before, subscribed folder list is saved in @file{~/.folders} file.
1929 But you don't have to edit @file{~/.folders} directly.
1930 You can append, delete, edit folders from folder mode.
1932 @subsection Usage (Tips)
1934 @subsubsection Append Folder
1936 @kbd{m a} appends new folder to the folder mode.
1937 @kbd{m g} appends new folder group.
1938 To append new folder to this group, firstly open it,
1939 then execute append command in the next line.
1941 @subsubsection Edit Folder
1943 You can cut folder by @kbd{C-k}, paste by @kbd{C-y}.
1944 Thus, you can change folder position as if you were editing a normal file.
1946 @subsubsection Create Multi Folder.
1950 Type @kbd{m q} to clear @code{wl-fldmgr-cut-entity-list}.
1952 Cut folder by @kbd{C-k} or copy folder by @kbd{M-c}.
1954 Type @kbd{m m}, then you can create multi folder.
1957 @subsubsection Delete Nickname, Filter
1959 You can delete nickname or filter by putting ``''(@var{NULL}) from the
1960 minibuffer while appending.
1962 @subsubsection Append Folder to Empty Group
1964 To append new folder to the empty folder group
1965 (after you create folder group by typing @kbd{m g}),
1966 firstly open it, then execute append command in the next line.
1967 If it is closed, folder is appended on the same level with
1968 the above folder group. It is difficult to explain by words so try it.
1969 In other words, appended position depends on the
1970 above folder group's open/close status.
1972 @subsubsection Charset of the Folders File.
1974 @code{wl-mime-charset} is used for saving @code{wl-folders-file}.
1976 @subsubsection Create Filter
1978 @kbd{m f} adds filter to the folder at the current cursor point. To
1979 create new filter folder and leave the current folder unchanged, copy it
1980 @kbd{M-c}, make filter @kbd{m f} and paste it @kbd{C-y}. Multiple
1981 filter can be specified while appending filter. If you put
1982 ``''(@var{NULL}), filter is deleted.
1984 @subsubsection Sort Folders
1986 Sorting of the folders is executed by the function specified by
1987 @code{wl-fldmgr-sort-func}.
1988 The initial setting is @code{wl-fldmgr-sort-standard},
1989 which sorts alphabetically.
1990 Sorting affects only on the current folder group. It does not
1991 affect on the child groups.
1993 @subsubsection Hiding Folders in the Access Group
1995 Usually, access group displays all children folders, but you can set
1996 some folders hidden. Following operations are only available on access
1999 Command @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe} (@kbd{u}) toggles the visibility
2000 (subscribe/unsubscribe) of the folder at current cursor point. Against
2001 this, @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe-region} (@kbd{U}) hides folders in the
2004 Note that @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe-region} does not toggle while
2005 @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe} toggles. These two commands accept prefix
2006 argument and if the argument has positive number, the unsubscribe it.
2007 If the prefix argument has negative value, folder becomes visible and if
2008 zero, folder visibility is toggled.
2010 The other commands, @code{wl-fldmgr-subscribe} and
2011 @code{wl-fldmgr-subscribe-region} are also prepared (not binded to the
2014 Moreover, if @code{wl-fldmgr-cut} or @code{wl-fldmgr-cut-region} is
2015 executed in the access group, they have a same effect with
2016 @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe} and @code{wl-fldmgr-unsubscribe-region}.
2017 The difference is that cut commands deletes folders from the current
2020 @subsubsection Operations in the Access Group
2022 You can insert and delete folders in the access group like usual folder
2023 group. But insert and delete commands can be only available for the
2024 children folders of the access group and they only sets the subscribe
2025 status. In other words, insertion of the folder means subscribing,
2026 deletion means unsubscribing.
2027 @footnote{In the current implementation,
2028 it is faster to delete region than to unsubscribe region.}
2030 To update the access group when children folders are inserted or deleted
2031 by other way (other than Wanderlust),
2032 open the access group by typing @kbd{C-u @key{RET}}.
2033 @xref{Selecting Folder}.
2035 The order of children folders of access group is saved after
2036 insertion/deletion/sorting.
2037 If you set @code{wl-force-fetch-folders} to non-nil or open access group
2038 by typing @kbd{C-u @key{RET}}, disappeared folders are deleted and
2039 newly created folders are inserted on the top of the access group.

2331 @var{Temporal mark} and @var{Persistent mark} are described later.
2333 @var{Date} is displayed like @samp{@var{Month}/@var{Day}(@var{Week
2334 Day})@var{Hour}:@var{Minute}}. Default setting displays week day in
2335 Japanese, but if you want to display it in English, set the value of
2336 @code{wl-summary-weekday-name-lang} as @samp{en}.
2338 @var{Sender}'s indentation corresponds to the depth of the thread.
2339 Sender name is displayed as nickname if it is defined in the address
2340 book. Set @code{wl-use-petname} as @samp{nil}, if you want to quit
2341 displaying with nickname.
2343 If number is printed at the head of @var{Sender} part like @samp{+2},
2344 that means the message have 2 follow messages.
2346 @var{Subject} is the @samp{Subject:} header field of the message. If
2347 the message have same @samp{Subject:} with the parent message, it is not
2348 displayed. Some mailing list puts its sequence number in the
2349 @samp{Subject:} field, but it is
2350 ignored. @code{wl-summary-no-subject-message} is displayed when the
2351 message has empty subject field.
2353 @subsection Temporary Marks
2354 @cindex Mark, Temporary
2356 There are four temporary marks,
2357 @samp{*}, @samp{D}, @samp{o} and @samp{O}.
2358 Temporary marks indicates message operations.
2363 You can execute a command on the all messages that have @samp{*} mark,
2364 with the key bindings which begins with @kbd{m}.
2367 The mark to delete. You can put @samp{D} by typing @kbd{d} key.
2371 After you type @kbd{o} key, prompt appears to input refile destination.
2372 Your answer is printed in the summary line.
2376 You can put this mark by typing @kbd{O} key.
2377 The difference between this mark and refile mark is,
2378 this mark does not delete the message while latter does.
2381 @kbd{x} key executes @samp{D}, @samp{o} and @samp{O} marks.
2383 @subsection Persistent Marks
2385 There are five persistent marks,
2386 @samp{N}, @samp{U}, @samp{!}, @samp{u} and @samp{$}.
2388 The persistent mark indicates the message's status and it is saved.
2389 Each persistent mark indicates:
2395 It is unread message.
2397 It is unread but cached message.
2399 It is read but it is not cached.
2401 It is important message. You can put @samp{$} mark by typing @kbd{$}
2402 key (if already exists, the mark is deleted). It is convenient to put
2403 this mark on the messages to remember (If you want to remember to write
2404 a reply for the message, for example) because this mark remains after
2405 you exited Emacs. Messages with the @samp{$} mark remains in the folder
2406 even the message itself is deleted in the actual folder.
2409 If the message is read and cached (or local message),there are no
2413 @samp{N}, @samp{U} and @samp{u} indicates that the message have no
2414 cache. Messages with the marks other than these, you can read them in
2415 the offline status even they are in the IMAP folder or netnews folder.
2417 @subsection How To Read
2419 Basically, you can read messages only typing space key again and again.
2421 To update summary status to the newest status (synchronize),
2424 You can jump to next unread message by typing @kbd{N} key, and @kbd{n} key
2425 moves cursor to the next message.
2426 Enter message buffer by typing @kbd{j} key.
2427 To operate multipart, you have to enter to the message buffer.
2430 @subsection Pack the Message Numbers
2431 You can pack the message numbers in Summary by
2432 @kbd{M-x wl-summary-pack-number}. Note that only MH Folder,
2433 News Spool Folder and Maildir Folder are supported folder types.
2436 @node Thread Operations, Cache, Usage of Summary Mode, Summary
2437 @section Thread Operations
2439 For example, the following line indicates one thread (a context of a topic).
2442 384 09/17(Thu)01:32 [+1: Teranishi ] wl-0.6.2
2446 If you type @kbd{/} on this line, the thread is opened and it changes
2447 the appearance like following.
2451 384 09/17(Thu)01:32 [ Teranishi ] wl-0.6.2
2452 388 09/17(Thu)22:34 +-[ Murata san ]
2456 (Message 388 is the replied message to the message 384.)
2457 If you type @kbd{/} key once again, the thread is closed.
2458 With prefix argument, @kbd{/} opens all children threads.
2460 If you type @kbd{[}, opens all threads in summary. @kbd{]} closes all
2463 Commands with the key binding that begins with @kbd{t} executes commands
2464 on the messages in the thread.
2466 @subsection reconstruct thread by hand
2468 You can reconstruct the thread manually. In Summary, @kbd{M-w}
2469 (@code{wl-summary-save-current-message}) at the corresponding message,
2470 and @kbd{C-y} (@code{wl-summary-yank-saved-message}) at the new parent
2471 message then you have the reconstructed thread.
2474 @node Cache, Auto Refile, Thread Operations, Summary
2477 @subsection Cache File
2479 The messages which have to access via network (e.x. IMAP, NNTP folder)
2480 are cached as a local file. The cache file is saved under the directory
2481 @file{~/.elmo/cache}. To expire cache, type @kbd{M-x
2482 elmo-cache-expire-by-size}. The command deletes cache files to the
2483 specified size by the order of last accessed time.
2485 @subsection Buffer Cache and Prefetching
2487 If the value of @code{elmo-use-buffer-cache} is non-nil, the messages
2488 that are read are kept in the cache buffer. It is called `buffer
2489 cache'. The number of cache buffer is specified by
2490 @code{elmo-buffer-cache-size}.
2492 There are message prefetching mechanism in the Wanderlust that
2493 prefetches next message while you are reading. This function requires
2494 that the value of @code{elmo-use-buffer-cache} is non-nil.
2496 You can control the message prefetching mechanism by these two
2500 @item wl-cache-prefetch-folder-type-list
2501 @vindex wl-cache-prefetch-folder-type-list
2502 The initial setting is the list shown below:
2510 It specifies the folder types in which message prefetching is enabled.
2511 In the initial setting, multi folder that contains localdir and imap4
2512 prefetches only imap4 messages. This variable precedes the value of
2513 @code{wl-cache-prefetch-folder-list}.
2515 If you want to prefetch localdir and localnews also, following setting
2520 (setq wl-cache-prefetch-folder-type-list
2521 '(nntp imap4 localdir localnews))
2525 @item wl-cache-prefetch-folder-list
2526 @vindex wl-cache-prefetch-folder-list
2527 The initial setting is @code{nil}.
2528 A list of regexp of folders to enable message prefetching.
2532 @node Auto Refile, Sticky Summary, Cache, Summary
2533 @section Auto Refile
2534 @vindex elmo-msgdb-extra-fields
2535 @vindex wl-refile-rule-alist
2536 @findex wl-summary-auto-refile
2538 You can refile messages automatically, by typing @kbd{C-o}
2539 (@code{wl-summary-auto-refile}). It decides destination of refile by
2540 the content of the message header information (information in the msgdb).
2542 By default, @samp{From:}, @samp{Subject:}, @samp{To:} and @samp{Cc:} is
2543 available. If you want to decide destination by other header fields,
2544 set the variable @code{elmo-msgdb-extra-fields} like following.
2548 (setq elmo-msgdb-extra-fields
2558 By this setting, Wanderlust saves extra fields in the msgdb. You have
2559 to type @kbd{s all} to get extra fields for the messages that are
2560 already exists in the summary.
2562 Then, specify the refile rule. The refile target folder of auto
2563 refiling is decided by the value of @code{wl-refile-rule-alist}.
2564 @code{wl-refile-rule-alist} is a list of a rule:
2568 (@var{field} (@var{regexp} . @var{target})
2569 (@var{regexp} . @var{target})
2574 Each rule means `if @var{field} value matches @var{regexp},
2575 then refile to @var{target} folder'.
2576 The rule matched first is applied.
2578 @var{field} is a string of field name. You can specify a list of field name
2579 string, too. In this case, if one of these fields is matched, then the
2580 rule is fired (i.e. OR condition).
2582 @var{regexp} is a regular expression for field value. @var{target} is a target
2583 folder string. You can specify a rule at @var{target} part, too. In this
2584 case, If the field value of the rule and the current rule is matched,
2585 then the current rule is fired (i.e. AND condition).
2587 In @var{target} part, you can refer matched substring of @var{regexp}.
2588 To refer substring, specify following in @var{target}:
2592 means substitute original matched text.
2595 means substitute what matched the @var{N}th `\(@dots{}\)'.
2596 (@var{N} is a number.)
2599 Following is an example of @code{wl-refile-rule-alist}.
2603 (setq wl-refile-rule-alist
2605 ("^Wanderlust" . "+wl")
2606 ("^Elisp" . "+elisp"))
2608 ("\\([a-z]+\\)@@gohome.org" . "+\\1"))
2610 ("me@@gohome.org" . ("To" ("you@@gohome.org" .
2611 "+from-me-to-you"))))))
2615 After these settings, refile marks are automatically put on the condition
2616 matched messages by typing @kbd{C-o} (@code{wl-summary-auto-refile}).
2618 Messages which have @code{wl-summary-auto-refile-skip-marks} is skipped
2620 By default, @samp{N}, @samp{U} and @samp{!} is specified, so the messages
2621 with these persistent marks are not automatically refiled.
2622 It means Wanderlust does not execute auto refile on unread messages by
2623 the default setting.
2624 To execute auto refile on all messages, set following.
2627 (setq wl-summary-auto-refile-skip-marks nil)
2631 @node Sticky Summary, Key Bindings of Summary, Auto Refile, Summary
2632 @section Sticky Summary
2633 @cindex Summary, Sticky
2634 @cindex Sticky Summary
2636 The buffer of the `sticky summary' does not killed by typing @kbd{q}.
2638 Sticky buffer is created by entering the summary by typing @kbd{C-u g}
2639 or type @kbd{M-s} (@code{wl-summary-stick}) on the normal summary.
2641 The buffer name of the sticky summary becomes like
2642 @samp{Summary:@var{folder-name}}.
2644 You can visit the sticky summary at any time by @kbd{C-x b}
2645 (@code{switch-to-buffer}). To exit sticky summary, type @kbd{C-u
2646 q}. Other operations in the sticky summary are same as normal summary.
2648 @code{wl-summary-always-sticky-folder-list} specifies the folders that
2649 are automatically sticked.

3740 ("Organization" . (format "Go %s" my-webpage)))
3741 ;; @r{you can write elisp expressions here (eval only)}
3742 (top . "Hello.\n") ;; @r{inserted at the top of the body}
3743 (bottom . "\nBye.\n") ;; @r{inserted at the bottom of the body}
3748 The format of @code{wl-draft-config-alist} is:
3752 '(("@var{regexp of the header}" or @var{elisp expression}
3753 ("@var{Field}" . value(@var{elisp expression}))
3754 (@var{variable} . value(@var{elisp expression}))
3755 (@var{sub-function} . value(@var{elisp expression}))
3758 ("@var{regexp of the header}" or @var{elisp expression}
3759 ("@var{Field}" . value(@var{elisp expression}))
3764 Per default, there are 10 following sub-functions.
3767 'header: Inserts the specified string at the bottom of the header.
3768 'header-file: Inserts the specified file at the bottom of the header.
3769 'x-face: Inserts @samp{X-Face:} field with the content of the specified file.
3770 'top: Inserts the specified string at the top of the body.
3771 'top-file: Inserts the specified file at the top of the body.
3772 'body: Replaces the body with the specified string.
3773 Specifying @code{nil} deletes the entire body string.
3774 'body-file: Replaces the body with the content of the specified file.
3775 'bottom: Inserts the specified string at the bottom of the body.
3776 'bottom-file: Inserts the specified file at the top of the body.
3777 'template: Applies the specified template.
3778 (refer to the next subsection)
3781 These are defined in @code{wl-draft-config-sub-func-alist} and you can
3782 change them or add your own functions. If you read the code, you can
3783 easily find how to write the functions.
3785 At the first of each item, @var{a regular expression of the header} or
3786 an @var{elisp expression} should be specified. In the case of an elisp
3787 expression, the item is applied when the expression is evaluated
3790 Per default, when multiple items match or are evaluated non-nil, all
3791 such items are applied, but if you set a variable
3792 @code{wl-draft-config-matchone} to @code{t}, only the first matching one
3795 At the second of the item, a cons or a list of functions should be
3796 specified. The car part of the cons should be a header field, a
3797 variable, or a sub-function. When a header field is specified, the
3798 field will be modified. If a variable is specified, the value of the
3799 variable will be modified temporarily.
3801 In the cdr part of a cons, not only a variable but also an elisp
3802 expression can be specified as is. If the car part is a header field
3803 and the cdr part is @code{nil}, the field will be deleted.
3805 See the next example as well:
3809 (setq wl-draft-config-alist
3811 "X-ML-Name: \\(Wanderlust\\|emacs-mime-ja\\|apel-ja\\)"
3812 ;; @r{applied if it matches the header of the buffer being replied}
3813 (body . " Hello.\n")
3814 (template . "default")
3819 As in the (1) above, if a header regexp is prepended with @code{reply},
3820 it is applied when the draft is prepared by @code{wl-summary-reply} for
3821 example, and when it matches the header being replied. It is ignored
3822 when there is no buffer being replied, like after @code{wl-draft} was
3825 Note that @code{wl-draft-config-alist} is applied only once when
3826 @code{wl-draft-send-and-exit} or @code{wl-draft-send} is invoked.
3827 Therefore, if you want to apply @code{wl-draft-config-alist} again after
3828 aborting transmission, execute @kbd{C-c C-e}
3829 (@code{wl-draft-config-exec}) explicitly.
3831 If you don't want to apply @code{wl-draft-config-alist} when
3832 @code{wl-draft-send-and-exit} or @code{wl-draft-send} is invoked,
3836 (remove-hook 'wl-draft-send-hook 'wl-draft-config-exec)
3839 If you want to apply @code{wl-draft-config-alist} when a draft buffer is
3840 prepared, do the following:
3843 (add-hook 'wl-mail-setup-hook 'wl-draft-config-exec)
3846 If you want to apply @code{wl-draft-config-alist} when you re-edit a mail
3847 from summary mode by typing @kbd{E}(@code{wl-summary-reedit}), do the
3851 (add-hook 'wl-draft-reedit-hook 'wl-draft-config-exec)
3854 @subsection Inserting Templates
3856 @cindex Apply Template
3858 Set a variable @code{wl-template-alist}, and type @kbd{C-c C-j} or
3859 @kbd{M-x wl-template-select} in the draft buffer.
3861 The format of @code{wl-template-alist} is almost the same as
3862 @code{wl-draft-config-alist}.
3866 (setq wl-template-alist
3869 ("Organization" . "~/.wl sample")
3870 (body . "Hello.\n"))
3872 (template . "default") ;; @r{(a)}
3873 ("To" . "jousi@@kaisha.jp")
3874 ("Subject" . "Report")
3875 (body-file . "~/work/report.txt")
3881 As you can see, the only difference is item (template) names such as
3882 @samp{default} and @samp{report}, instead of a regexp of header.
3883 Because definition of each item is the same as
3884 @code{wl-draft-config-alist}, you can call another template, like (a).
3886 Executing the command @code{wl-template-select} results in template
3887 selection, but the result differs depending on variable
3888 @code{wl-template-visible-select}.
3890 If @code{wl-template-visible-select} is @code{t} (default), a buffer
3891 window is shown below the draft buffer. You can select a template by
3892 @kbd{n} and @kbd{p} seeing the buffer window.
3894 Press the @key{RET} key and the template is actually applied to the draft
3895 buffer. If you press @kbd{q}, nothing is applied. In addition, you can
3896 adjust the window size by @code{wl-template-buffer-lines}.
3898 If @code{wl-template-visible-select} is @code{nil}, you should type the
3899 name of the template in the mini buffer.
3901 As shown in the example in @code{wl-draft-config-alist}, you can select
3902 @samp{default} template by writing:
3905 (template . "default")

3909 @cindex POP-before-SMTP
3911 You can send mail by POP-before-SMTP with this single line:

3934 The POP port number for POP-before-SMTP authentication.
3935 If unset, @code{elmo-default-pop3-port} is used.

3938 If non-nil, POP connection is established using SSL. If
3939 @code{starttls}, STARTTLS (RFC2595) connection will be established. If
3940 unset, @code{elmo-default-pop3-stream-type} is used.
3943 If variables for POP-before-SMTP (@code{wl-pop-before-smtp-*}) are
3944 unset, settings for POP folders (@code{elmo-default-pop3-*}) are
3946 Therefore, if SMTP server and POP server are actually the same, and if
3947 POP folder per default (such as @samp{&}) is available, no settings are

4346 @vindex wl-pop-before-smtp-stream-type
4347 The initial setting is @code{nil}.
4348 This flag controls the use of SSL for POP-before-SMTP. If it is
4349 @code{nil}, @code{elmo-default-pop3-stream-type} is used. If @code{starttls},
4350 STARTTLS (RFC2595) connection will be established.
4352 @item wl-draft-queue-save-variables
4353 @vindex wl-draft-queue-save-variables
4354 Specifies a list of variable to which queued messages are saved on the
4355 off-line transmission.
4357 @item wl-draft-sendlog
4358 @vindex wl-draft-sendlog
4359 The initial setting is @code{t}.

4465 accumulated in the queue folder, @samp{+queue}. These messages are
4466 transmitted at once when Wanderlust becomes on-line.
4468 You can visit @samp{+queue} in the off-line state and confirm content of
4469 messages in the queue. You can also remove messages. Removed messages
4470 are not transmitted even in the on-line state.
4473 @node Re-file and Copy queue, Creation of Folders, Send Messages off-line, Enable Operations
4474 @subsection Re-file and Copy (IMAP4)
4476 Re-file and copy operations to IMAP folders invoked during the off-line
4477 state are accumulated in the queue, and reflected in the server side
4478 when Wanderlust becomes on-line. If you visit destination folders after
4479 off-line re-file or copy, it looks as if messages were appended even in
4482 For the safety reasons, messages re-filed off-line are removed from
4483 source folders only if their @samp{Message-ID:} match messages on the

4485 re-filed or copied to the specified folders are appended to the folder
4489 @node Creation of Folders, Marking, Re-file and Copy queue, Enable Operations
4490 @subsection Creation of Folders (IMAP4)
4492 You can create IMAP folders off-line. The creation of folders are
4493 reflected in the servers when Wanderlust becomes on-line. At that time,
4494 if folders failed to be created on the servers for any reasons, messages

4514 these off-line operations for IMAP4 and NNTP do not take place, and
4515 off-line re-file, copy or suchlike simply results in error.
4517 Because off-line operations use cache files, it is a bad idea to erase
4518 them by hand; it may cause Wanderlust to malfunction.
4520 If you want to remove caches, be sure to execute @kbd{M-x
4521 elmo-cache-expire-by-size}. @code{elmo-cache-expire-by-size} does not

4565 The second and after lines indicate on-line/off-line states of servers
4566 and ports, where @samp{[ON]} stands for on-line and @samp{[--]} for
4567 off-line (in XEmacs or Emacs 21, they are shown with icons). Pressing
4568 @kbd{@key{SPC}} or @kbd{@key{RET}} in each line switches its state.
4570 @dfn{sending queue} means messages accumulated in the folder

4575 @c off-line operations are enabled.
4577 They are displayed if there are any of them. In the example above, in
4578 the sending queue there are two messages (the first and the second in
4579 the queue folder) for smtp to hosta and one (the third) for nntp to
4580 hosta, and in the dop queue there are one for @samp{%inbox} and two for
4583 If you change @samp{(wl-plugged)} in the second line, the variable
4584 @code{wl-plugged} is changed, so that the mode line indicator and
4585 plugged states of all ports are affected. If you change plugged states
4586 of any servers or ports, @samp{(wl-plugged)} in the second line is
4587 affected depending on @code{elmo-plugged-condition} settings and the
4588 plugged state of each port.

4717 @cindex Expire Message
4719 Expiration means deletion of old messages which have outlasted a
4720 certain period of time.
4722 @code{wl-expire} supports not only simple deletion, but also moving to
4723 specified archiving folders.
4727 Configure @code{wl-expire-alist} and press @kbd{e} in the folder mode,
4728 or @kbd{M-e} in the summary mode.
4730 @subsection Configuring @code{wl-expire-alist}
4732 An example configuration of @code{wl-expire-alist} is shown below.
4733 Everything in this @code{wl-expire-alist} makes a great difference in
4734 expiration, so be careful. I advise you to set @code{wl-expire-use-log}
4735 to @code{t}, especially in the initial stage.
4739 (setq wl-expire-alist
4740 '(("^\\+trash$" (date 14) remove)

4749 ;; @r{archive by message number (retaining numbers)}
4750 ("^\\+ml/.*" (number 300 310) wl-expire-archive-number2 t)
4751 ;; @r{archive by a fixed number (retaining numbers)}
4752 ("^\\+diary$" (date 30) wl-expire-archive-date)
4753 ;; @r{archive by year and month (numbers discarded)}
4758 Items in the list has the format of:
4761 (@var{regexp-for-folders} @var{specification-of-messages-to-be-deleted} @var{destination})
4765 The folder is examined if it matches @var{regexp-for-folders} from the
4766 beginning of the list. If you invoke expiration on the folder that does
4767 not match any of them, nothing will happen. And if either the second or
4768 the third element of the item is @code{nil}, expiration will not take
4771 You can use any one of the following for
4772 @var{specification-of-message-to-be-deleted}:
4775 @item (number @var{n1} [@var{n2}])
4776 deletes messages depending on the number of messages in the folder.
4778 @var{n1} is the number of messages which should survive deletion, for example
4779 if its value is 500, the newest 500 messages survive and the rests are
4782 @var{n2} is the number of messages in the folder on which expiration should
4783 take place, which defaults to @var{n1} + 1. For example if its value is 510,
4784 folders with 510 or more messages are expired.
4785 If you configured automatic expiration, frequently used folders may
4786 expire every time it receive messages, and you may be annoyed with the
4787 long delay in reading mail.
4788 In that case, you can set a wide margin between @var{n2} and @var{n1}, so that
4789 expiration would not take place until a certain number of messages
4792 Messages with marks in @code{wl-summary-expire-reserve-marks} (marked
4793 with important/new/unread) are not deleted.
4794 If @code{wl-expire-number-with-reserve-marks} is non-nil, the folder
4795 will expire so as to have 500 messages including such ones.
4796 Otherwise, it will have 500 messages except such ones.
4798 @item (date @var{d1})
4799 deletes messages depending on the dates.
4801 Messages dated @var{d1} or more days ago are deleted, for example if its
4802 value is seven, messages seven days old or more are deleted. Note that
4803 the date is the one in the @samp{Date:} field of the message, not when
4804 the message entered the folder.
4806 Messages with no or invalid @samp{Date:} field does not expire; you
4807 might have to delete them by hand.
4810 You can use any one of the following in the place of @var{destination}:
4814 deletes the messages instantly.
4817 hide the messages from summary (messages are not deleted).
4820 moves the messages to @code{wl-trash-folder}.
4822 @item @var{string}(folder)
4823 moves the messages to the folder specified with @var{string}.
4825 It would be useful for specifying an archiving folder, but because this
4826 does not move important messages, it might be better to use the
4827 standard functions described below.
4829 @item @var{function}
4830 invokes the specified @var{function}.
4832 To the @var{function}, three arguments are passed: a folder name, a list
4833 of messages to be deleted, and msgdb information of the summary. You
4834 can specify function-specific arguments after the name of the
4835 @var{function}. Note that the list contains messages with marks in
4836 @code{wl-summary-expire-reserve-marks}, be careful in writing your own
4839 These are three standard functions; they moves messages to an archive
4840 folder in the specified way. This means old messages can be compressed
4841 and saved in a file, being deleted from the original folder.
4844 @item wl-expire-archive-number1
4845 re-files to archiving folders corresponding to the message numbers of
4846 the messages being deleted. For example, a message numbered 102 will be
4847 re-filed to @file{wl-00100.zip}, 390 to @file{wl-00300.zip}, and so on.
4848 If @code{wl-expire-archive-files} is 200, messages will be re-filed to
4849 @file{wl-00000.zip}, @file{wl-00200.zip}, @file{wl-00400.zip}, @dots{}.
4851 The archiving folders to which messages are re-filed are determined by
4852 the name of the folder as follows (in this case, archiving folders are
4853 handled as if @code{elmo-archive-treat-file} were non-nil).
4856 @item If the folder type is localdir:
4857 @file{@var{ArchiveDir}/@var{foldername}-xxxxx.zip}
4859 For example, @samp{+ml/wl} corresponds to @samp{$ml/wl;zip}
4860 (@file{~/Mail/ml/wl-00100.zip}).
4862 @item The folder type is other than localdir:
4863 @file{@var{ArchiveDir}/@var{foldertype}/@var{foldername}-xxxxx.zip}
4865 For example, @samp{%#mh/ml/wl} corresponds to
4866 @samp{$imap4/#mh/ml/wl;zip} (@file{~/Mail/imap4/#mh/ml/wl-00100.zip}).
4869 As you can see, in the case of localdir, the folder type is not included
4870 in the path name, but otherwise it is included.
4871 And you can control the prefix to the archiving folder name by
4872 @code{wl-expire-archive-folder-prefix}.
4873 Refer to @code{wl-expire-archive-folder-prefix} for details.
4875 @item wl-expire-archive-number2
4876 re-files every certain number of messages to archiving folders.
4878 This differs from @samp{wl-expire-archive-number1} in that this re-files
4879 to the folder up to the specified number regardless of message numbers.
4880 The archiving folders to which messages are re-filed are determined in the
4881 same way as @code{wl-expire-archive-number1}.
4883 @item wl-expire-archive-date
4884 re-files messages depending on its date (year and month) to archive
4887 For example, a message dated December 1998 is re-filed to
4888 @code{$folder-199812;zip}. The name of the archiving folders except the
4889 date part are determined in the same way as
4890 @code{wl-expire-archive-number1}.
4893 You can set the first argument to these three standard functions to non-nil
4894 in @code{wl-expire-alist} so as to retain message numbers in the folder.
4895 For example, it can be specified just after the name of the function:
4898 ("^\\+ml/wl$" (number 300 310) wl-expire-archive-number1 t)
4901 If you omit the argument, consecutive numbers from 1 are assigned for
4902 each archiving folder.
4905 @subsection Treatment for Important or Unread Messages
4907 If you specify any of @code{remove}, @code{trash}, a folder name, or a
4908 standard function, messages with marks in
4909 @code{wl-summary-expire-reserve-marks} (which are called @dfn{reserved
4910 messages} thereafter) are retained.
4912 Per default, this variable include the important, new, and unread marks,
4913 so that messages with these marks are not removed.
4914 Note that you cannot include the temporary mark (i.e. temporary marks
4915 are removed anyway), and be sure to process temporary marks before you
4918 @subsection Auto Expiration
4920 The following setup invokes expiration when you move into the summary
4921 mode. There will be no confirmation, so make sure you made no mistake
4922 in regexp and other settings before you set up this.
4926 (add-hook 'wl-summary-prepared-pre-hook 'wl-summary-expire)
4930 In the folder mode, you can invoke expiration per group as well as per
4931 folder. Therefore, if you specify @samp{Desktop} group, all folders
4932 matching @code{wl-expire-alist} expire.
4936 @subsection Treating archive folders.
4937 To treat archive folders created by @code{wl-expire-archive-number1} and so on,
4938 you must set non-nil value to @code{elmo-archive-treat-file}.
4940 @subsection Confirming
4942 If you are to use @code{remove}, try @code{trash} at first and see
4943 messages move to @code{wl-trash-folder} as expected, then replace it
4944 with @code{remove}. It would be dangerous to use @code{remove} from the
4947 If you are to use @code{wl-expire-archive-number1} and the like, try to
4948 make a folder of the archiver type (@code{zip} or @code{lha}) and see if
4949 you can append messages to it. Even if settings in
4950 @code{wl-expire-alist} and @code{elmo-archive} are correct, messages
4951 would not be saved anywhere and disappeared in case the archiver program
4954 After you make sure you can archive to the folder correctly, you can
4955 invoke expiration and utilize the log.
4957 If you set @code{wl-expire-use-log} to @code{t},
4958 @file{~/.elmo/expired-log} should contain the log, for example:
4962 delete +ml/wl (593 594 595 596 597 598 599)
4963 move +ml/wl -> $ml/wl-00600;tgz;wl (600 601 602)
4967 The first column indicates the operation, i.e. @samp{delete},
4968 @samp{copy}, or @samp{move}. The next is the name of the folder that
4969 expired. In the case of @samp{copy} and @samp{move}, the destination
4970 folder is recorded after @samp{->}. The last is the list of message
4971 numbers that are actually deleted or moved (in the case of @samp{copy}
4972 and @samp{move}, the number is the one in the source folder, rather than
4973 the destination folder).
4975 @subsection Re-filing Reserved Messages
4977 The three standard functions copy reserved messages to the archive
4978 folder, but do not delete them from the source folder. Because
4979 reserved messages and the like always remain, they are recorded in
4980 @file{~/.elmo/expired-alist} so that they are not copied over and over
4981 again. They are not recorded if copied by @code{wl-summary-archive}.
4983 If you enabled logging, usually @samp{move} is recorded for re-filing,
4984 but instead @samp{copy} and @samp{delete} are recorded separately if
4985 reserved messages are involved. This is because it actually copies
4986 messages including reserved, then deletes ones except reserved in that

5130 If non-nil, messages older than the one with the largest number will be
5131 deleted with confirmation.
5132 If @code{nil}, they are deleted without confirmation.
5134 This feature is valid only if non-nil is specified as a argument to the
5135 standard functions so as to retain numbers.
5137 @item wl-expire-use-log
5138 @vindex wl-expire-use-log
5139 The initial setting is @code{nil}.
5140 If non-nil, expiration logs are recorded in @file{~/.elmo/expired-log}.

5148 If non-nil, when messages are re-filed by expiration, read/unread
5149 information is passed to the destination folder.
5151 However if you do not read the destination folder from Wanderlust,

5204 As inferred from their names, they work similarly to "expire" versions,
5205 other than the following points:
5208 @item No messages are deleted
5209 @item Message numbers are retained even if invoked without arguments
5212 These functions are good to archive all messages in a folder by their
5213 numbers or by their dates.
5214 These are also useful for backup or confirmation purposes before
5216 If you try to re-file them after they are archived, they are deleted but
5219 Per default, the archiving folders to which messages are copied are
5220 determined automatically by @code{wl-expire-archive-get-folder-func}.
5221 You can copy to a specific folder by invoking with a prefix argument,
5222 i.e. @kbd{C-u M-x wl-summary-archive}.

5255 This variable specifies a function that copies to archiving folders.
5256 To the function, three arguments are passed: a folder name, a list of

5267 Scoring is the function that associates a score (value) with each
5268 message, and marks as read or deletes from the summary according to it.
5270 You can put target or important marks on essential messages, or read marks
5271 on the ones you do not want to read, for example spam articles.
5273 This scoring function has a capability and a format similar to the one
5274 that Gnus has, although there are some unsupported features and

5290 @code{wl-score-folder-alist} specifies score files or variables in which
5291 scores are defined, corresponding to folder names.
5295 (setq wl-score-folder-alist
5304 If paths to the score files are omitted, the directory specified in the
5305 variable @code{wl-score-files-dir} is assumed.
5307 No matter what you write in @code{wl-score-folder-alist}, the default
5308 score file @code{wl-score-default-file} (@file{all.SCORE}) is always
5309 read (it does not have to exist).
5310 Therefore, in the example above, the three score files,
5311 @file{news.SCORE}, @file{my.SCORE}, and @file{all.SCORE} are read for
5312 the folders that matches @samp{^-.*}.
5314 @subsection Scored Messages
5316 Scores are attached to the messages that are specified by
5317 @code{wl-summary-score-marks} temporarily when the summary is updated;
5318 when you exit from the summary, the scores are removed and reverts to
5321 @subsection Creation of Score Files
5323 In the summary buffer, move to an appropriate message and type @kbd{L}.
5324 Then type @kbd{s}, @kbd{s}, and @kbd{p} at a prompt in a mini-buffer.
5325 The string in Subject is presented. Edit it and press @kbd{@key{RET}}.
5327 This makes @minus{}1000 are scored for messages with the same
5328 @samp{Subject:} as the string you entered. That is, such a score file
5329 is created automatically.
5331 Then, try typing @kbd{h} and @kbd{e} in the same summary buffer.
5332 The score file you just made appears.
5333 This buffer is called @dfn{score editing buffer} thereafter.
5334 When you type @kbd{C-c C-e} in it, you are prompted in the mini-buffer
5335 as you are previously; type @kbd{a}. Then a score entry for "From"
5337 In this way, you can create a score file easily either in the summary
5338 buffer or in the score editing buffer.
5340 By the way, you might be aware the numbers of key strokes are different
5341 between @kbd{s s p} and @kbd{a}.
5342 This is determined by @code{wl-score-header-default-entry}.
5343 This variable specifies the default score entries corresponding to
5345 For example, for "subject" field, a type and a time limit are prompted,
5346 but for "from" field, they are fixed upon automatically as substring and
5347 permanent respectively.
5348 However, score values can be modified by the prefix argument.
5349 Typing @kbd{?} at the mini-buffer shows a help on keys and corresponding
5352 At last, type @kbd{C-c C-c} in the score editing buffer. This saves the
5353 score file and terminates the edit mode. Typing @kbd{C-c C-c} after
5354 erasing contents of the buffer deletes the score file being edited.
5358 @subsubsection Selecting Score Files
5360 You can change score files to which scores are appended by
5361 @code{wl-summary-increase-score} and @code{wl-summary-lower-score} by
5362 @code{wl-score-change-score-file}.
5364 @subsubsection Summing Up the Score
5366 If you add the same entries by @code{wl-summary-increase-score},
5367 @code{wl-summary-lower-score}, and @code{wl-score-edit-insert-entry},
5368 scores for the entry is summed up.
5370 For example, if you create @samp{from} entry with the score of @minus{}1000 by
5371 @kbd{L a} and again @samp{from} with @minus{}200, one entry with the score of
5372 @minus{}1200 will be created as a result.
5374 @subsubsection Creating Thread Key
5376 Creating @samp{Thread} key by @code{wl-summary-increase-score} or
5377 @code{wl-summary-lower-score} appends @samp{Message-ID} of all children.
5379 @subsubsection Creating Followup Key
5381 Creating @samp{Followup} key by @code{wl-summary-increase-score} or
5382 @code{wl-summary-lower-score} appends @samp{Message-ID} of the message
5383 at the cursor to @samp{References} key.

5622 If the key is a string, it is the name of the header to be matched.
5623 The following keys are available:
5624 @code{Subject}, @code{From}, @code{Date}, @code{Message-ID},
5625 @code{References}, @code{To}, @code{Cc}, @code{Chars}, @code{Lines},
5626 @code{Xref}, @code{Extra}, @code{Followup}, @code{Thread}
5627 @code{Chars} and @code{Lines} mean the size and the number of lines of
5628 the message, respectively. @code{Extra}, @code{Followup}, @code{Thread}
5629 are described later.
5630 The rest corresponds the field of the same name.
5632 Arbitrary numbers of core entries are specified after the key.
5633 Each score entry consists of these five factors:
5637 A factor that matches header. This should be a number in the cases of
5638 @code{lines} and @code{chars}, otherwise a string.
5641 A score factor. When the first item matches, the score of the message
5642 is increased or decreased by this value.
5645 A time limiting factor. If @code{nil}, the score is permanent, and in the case
5646 of a number, the score is deleted if it does not match for days
5647 (@code{wl-score-expiry-days}) from the date specified by this.
5648 The date is since Dec. 31, 1 B.C.
5651 A type factor. This specifies the way the first factor matches.
5652 Available types depend on keys.
5655 @item From, Subject, References, Message-ID
5656 For these keys in string, @code{r} and @code{R} (regexp),
5657 @code{s} and @code{S} (substring), @code{e} and @code{E} (exact match),
5658 as well as @code{f} and @code{F} (fuzzy) can be used.
5659 @code{R}, @code{S}, @code{E}, and @code{F} are case sensitive.
5662 For these keys, the following five numerical relative operators can be
5663 used: @code{<}, @code{>}, @code{=}, @code{>=}, @code{<=}.
5666 This key matches @code{From} header, and scores all follow-ups to the
5668 For example, it would be useful for increasing scores for follow-ups to
5671 You can use the same types as @code{From} except for @code{f}.
5672 And a @samp{Followup} entry is automatically appended to the score file.
5675 This key scores (sub-)threads beginning with @code{Message-ID} @var{x}.
5676 A @samp{Thread} entry is automatically appended for each article that
5677 has @var{x} in the @code{References} header.
5678 You can make sure the whole thread including messages that does not have
5679 all ancestors @code{Message-ID} in @code{References} is scored.
5681 You can use the same types as @code{References} except for @code{f}.
5682 And a @samp{Thread} entry is automatically appended to the score file.
5686 A factor for extension header. This is meaningful only if the key is
5688 This specifies headers to be matched other than standard headers like
5689 @code{Subject} and @code{From}.
5690 Note that you should specify the header in
5691 @code{elmo-msgdb-extra-fields} also.
5692 Therefore it does not work in folders where extension headers cannot be
5697 The sum of these scores @emph{after all factors are applied} becomes the

6324 If you are eccentric enough to elaborate @samp{X-Mailer:} or
6325 @samp{User-Agent:} fields, define a function that generate appropriate
6326 strings as you like, and set it to variable
6327 @code{wl-generate-mailer-string-func}.

6428 You may want to set this variable so as to match conditional filter
6429 folders for IMAP4 folders.
6430 The initial setting is @code{nil}.
6432 @item wl-folder-use-server-diff

6435 the folder mode, usually (the number of messages on the server) @minus{}
6436 (the number of local messages) will be the number of unread messages.
6437 However, if this variable is non-nil, the number of unread messages on
6438 the server is checked. This affects IMAP4 folders only, but IMAP4
6439 folders in mail boxes matching
6440 @code{elmo-imap4-disuse-server-flag-mailbox-regexp} are not checked for
6441 the number of unread messages on the server, even if they matches this

6711 According to a dictionary, Wanderlust has the meaning:
6715 n eager longing for or impulse towards travelling in distant lands
6716 [Ger, fr wandern to wander + lust desire, pleasure]
6720 but I had no profound intention. (if farfetched, IMAP @result{} you can
6721 read mail anywhere @result{} desire to wander ?)
6723 Elmo is the abbreviation of @samp{Elisp Library for Message
6724 Orchestration}. At first I meant the red puppet in the Sesame Street,
6725 but you may associate it with Wandering @result{} Drifting @result{}
6726 Guidepost @result{} St.@: Elmo's fire @result{} elmo.
6730 Each versions has code names (they are almost jokes).
6731 Currently they are picked up alphabetically from the top 40 hits of
6732 U.S. Billboard magazines in 1980s.
