"appease gnus" message keeps taking over index screen

[Daniel Goldin]

I'm a non-programmer who uses emacs and org for academic papers. Mu4e works great with gmail so far, except for this annoying popup that disturbs my work-flow. Any help gratefully appreciated.

That phrase doesn't appear anywhere in the sources of either
mu/mu4e or Emacs itself. Could you please upload a screenshot of
it to an image-sharing service (e.g. Imgur or the like), and
provide the relevant link, as well as details about whether you
installed an Emacs distro (e.g. Doom Emacs, as distinct from stock
Emacs available from www.gnu.org), how you installed it, and on
what OS?

I am using emacs off of prelude. I am running emacs 29.2 on Linux.

Fyi, I found "appease-gnus" at codesearch.debian.net:

https://sources.debian.org/src/maildir-utils/1.10.8-2/mu4e/mu4e-view.el/?hl=706#L706

Never saw it in the wild, though.

Do you have 'dogears.el' installed?

Yeah, i initially only did a search in the relevant cloned repos
for "appease gnus" as it appears in the original email, i.e. with
a space instead of a dash. Once i saw the OP's screenshot, i did
an online search for "appease-gnus", i.e. with a dash instead of a
space.

Yes, I saw that dogears comment. I had dogears installed, but I uninstalled it after reading that -- and yet "appease-gnus"  still pops up.

*nod* Okay, good to rule that particular extension
out. Nevertheless, there might still be some _other_ extension
which is interactively negatively with mu4e. Do you observe this
behaviour when you run an instance of stock (i.e. non-Prelude)
Emacs with _only_ mu4e and your mu4e config loaded? If not, then
you can try to narrow down which non-mu4e thing is potentially
causing the problem by 'bisecting' your Emacs config:

* Temporarily remove half of your config. If the problem
disappears, then the problem was caused by something in the half
that was removed, otherwise it was caused by something in the
half that you kept.
* Repeat the process until you find the exact part of your config
that causes the problem to appear.

FYI, the culprit seems to be activities.el. Thanks for all your help.

Hi all,

Please see: <https://github.com/alphapapa/activities.el/issues/55>, and <https://github.com/djcb/mu/pull/2672> for a fix.
