Hmm, it looks like the same issue I am experiencing was documented here
(unresolved):

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/74703

I can't see to get rid of this message when trying to repool IMAP
articles, even when gnus-summary-respool-query is working fine.

Here's the error I get:

"gnus-summary-respool-article: No method given for respooling

Here are my relevant settings:

(setq nnimap-split-methods 'nnmail-split-fancy)
(setq gnus-select-method
      '(nnimap "pu"
               (nnimap-address "exchange.pu.edu")
               (nnimap-stream ssl)
               (nnimap-server-port 993)
               (nnimap-authenticator login)
               (nnir-search-engine imap)
               (nnimap-expunge-on-close never)
               (nnimap-split-methods default) 
               (nnimap-inbox "INBOX")))


It looks like the select method for nnimap is defined as this:

("nnimap" post-mail address prompt-address physical-address respool
 server-marks)

Is there a way to make it stop prompting for a physical-address and just
do the right thing like mmnl does?

I'm not good enough with elisp to debug this all the way right now, but
may have more time later.  It does look like a bug to me.  Let me know
if I should file it as one.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

Damon
