I know this isn't the ding list (I set replies to ding) but it was too close to something similar with the way gnus-agent handles messages under agent-unplugged when the message is not downloaded. The summary info is there and present in .overview, but no actual file exists. Is this cached somewhere too? Can that be deleted somehow too? And what or where is the "overview cache"?
