Variable: gnus-refer-thread-use-search

gnus-refer-thread-use-search is a customizable variable defined in gnus-sum.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

Specify where to find articles when referring threads.

A nil value restricts searches for thread-related articles to the current group; a value of t searches all groups on the server; a list of servers and groups (where each element is a list whose car is the server and whose cdr is a list of groups on this server or nil to search the entire server) searches these server/groups. This may usefully be set as a group parameter.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 28.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 28.1.

Aliases
