I've been having a strange recurring problem. I cannot reproduce it at will but over time it does reproduce itself. I run in topic mode, and have done for a good while. In addition to piles of gmane groups and mail groups. I also have an nnimap setup with gmail. Its put into the topic setup like this. ------- --------- ---=--- --------- -------- gnus [...] nntp gmane [lots of groups under this] nntp-foreign opera bleh opera bleh2 [...] nnml [many here] nnimap level1 bleh:Send Mail bleh:All Mail bleh:INBOX [...] two or three more level2 bleh:one bleh:two bleh:etc [...] 7-8 more [nndrafts] more-nnml [ etc ] ------- --------- ---=--- --------- -------- Probably a little overdone but you get the idea. Well, every so often following a gnus start up, the level2 of nnimap groups will have dropped to the bottom and out one step so its right under gnus but at the bottom. And even on a few occasions it appears in both places with the exact same groups under it. Its been a while since it last happened but it just happened a little while ago. This time only one instance but again, out one level and dropped to the bottom. When I first noticed it, I assumed I'd neglected so save properly and so .newsrc.eld held some wrong information. But I got more careful about saving deliberately every so often with `s' in group buffer. And yet a week or so later here it is again. In all, it must have happened something like 6-7 times now... and probably 4 of those had the double instance I mentioned. Any ideas folks?
