Hi all,

Gnus FAQ 3-9[1] has this example setup:

(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods
             '(nnimap "Give the baby a name"
                      (nnimap-address "imap.yourProvider.net")
                      (nnimap-port 143)
                      (nnimap-list-pattern "archive.*")))

git-grep'ing through the sources for `nnimap-list-pattern' says:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
doc/misc/gnus-faq.texi:                      (nnimap-list-pattern "archive.*")))
lisp/gnus/ChangeLog.2:  nnimap-list-pattern instead of "*".
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Is this variable still available?  Searching with C-h v shows no match.

Best, Arash

Looks like it has been dropped with the rewrite of nnimap.el.

No, it's gone.  I've now removed the mention of the variable from the
Gnus FAQ in Emacs 29.

Thanks for the quick fix.  Forgot to push?
