# This is a configuration file for the nn newsreader, v.6.7.3 or later (though
# most of this should still work with earlier versions).  To use it, name it
# 'init' and place it in the directory '~/.nn'.

# This causes the contents of ~/.signature to be automatically appended to
# posts & e-mails:
set append-signature-mail
set append-signature-post
unset query-signature

# When a closed subject is selected, this will cause all articles on that
# subject to be selected:
set auto-select-closed 2

# This keeps old copies of .newsrc from being saved the first time they're
# changed in a session:
unset backup

# This sets the character set to Latin-1 (nn doesn't support Unicode yet):
set charset iso-8859-1

# This causes long subjects to be truncated rather "collapsed" in the middle:
unset collapse-subject

# This causes all multi-article subjects to be automatically displayed as
# "closed":
set consolidated-menu

# This keeps cross-posted articles from being shown in more than one group:
unset cross-post

# On startup, enter the last read group or the first unread group after it with
# user confirmation:
set enter-last-read-mode 2

# Don't give messages about expired articles:
set expired-message-delay -1

# When including articles in replies, put the '> ' before blank lines as well:
set include-mark-blank-lines

# Remove unsubscribed groups from .newsrc:
unset keep-unsubscribed
set tidy-newsrc

# No blank lines in the article listing:
set long-menu

# The 'X' command marks the previous & current pages as seen:
set marked-by-read-skip 3

# Automatically ask to confirm subscriptions to new groups:
set new-group-action 4

# Set headers for outgoing e-mails & news articles (fill in your own e-mail
# address here!); the Organization field is set for news articles in order to
# override the value inserted by SDF's newsserver
set mail-header From: YOUR NAME HERE <EMAIL@ADDRESS.com>
set news-header From: YOUR NAME HERE <EMAIL@ADDRESS.com>;Organization: SDF Public Access UNIX System

# Always show the purpose of groups (if known):
set show-purpose-mode 2

# Program used to sign messages:
set sign-type gpg

# Don't automatically split digests:
unset split

# Don't show the current time in the prompt line:
