Right now, I think, we just copy and then delete the old article. Across various backends that makes sense, but if it's within the same IMAP backend, the server move can be much faster. I looked at gnus-sum.el, gnus-int.el, and nnimap.el. It seems possible, although the changes would have to go all the way to the top, because gnus-summary-move-article does the copy & delete action. If this works, Gnus will be much faster and more reliable in the common case of article moves in IMAP. Ted
