Moving nnimap articles failing with "has no process" error

Moving nnimap articles failing with "has no process" error

[John Sullivan]

I mark several messages with # to move, then do B m.

I get:

Opening TLS connection to `mail.fsf.org'...done
Opening nnimap server on fsf...done

Yeah, I'm moving imap mail between servers. This used to work okay.

"Gnus v5.13" "24.0.50.1"

Here's the imap-log:

14000 NO Current box is selected READ-ONLY.

Ideas? I tried closing all of the servers in the server buffer, and then
reopening them, but got the same error.

The plot thickens -- the messages aren't actually being moved at all,
even when there is no error.

They are initially marked with a G in the Summary buffer, when moved one
at a time, but I've just discovered that after re-entering the group,
they are still lurking there, now marked with O.

So, moving mail from one nnimap server to another seems to not be
working.

This maybe seems to only happen when trying to move articles to a group
which has not been entered yet since upgrading. After entering the
target group, this move now seems to work..

No, I was wrong about that, it's still happening. It moves one message
successfully and then fails.

This has to mean that the mailbox was selected with EXAMINE instead of
SELECT.  But I don't quite understand how -- I've gone over all the
instances in nnimap where it issues EXAMINE, and they all mark the group
as non-selected, so.  Hm.

Or does this mean that the server refuses to accept APPEND to a mail box
if it has been EXAMINEd?  I mean, you don't have to SELECT a mailbox
before APPENDing to it...

Oh, now I see the problem.  Fixed and pushed.

I've updated, but still seem to be having the problem in the same way.
Here's the imap log now:

10:41:57 296 UID FETCH 56712 BODY.PEEK[]
10:41:57 297 APPEND "INBOX.SpamMisses" {4053}

10:41:58 306 UID STORE 56649 +FLAGS.SILENT (\Deleted)

It dies with the error:

Moving to nnimap+fsf:INBOX.SpamMisses: (56712 56649)...
nnimap-send-command: Buffer *nnimap mail.fsf.org nil  *nntpd**<2> has no process

after successfully moving the first of 2 marked messages.

It seems like the fix went AWOL somewhere.  I've now made sure that the
group is deselected before APPENDing to it, since EXAMINE opens a group
read-only, and that makes some servers refuse to APPEND to it.

Updated, and verified that it works for me now. Thanks!

Sorry to keep going back and forth on this, but it's not actually
working. There is no error, but the message also isn't being moved. I
end up with two copies of the message, one marked O in the original
group, and one unread in the new group. Below is log data surrounding a
move of a message from INBOX.fsf to INBOX.SpamMisses, which are on two
different servers.

So when appending to INBOX.fsf, it unselects first.

But not here...  but that makes sense, since it hadn't selected that
group.

And it set the \Seen flag on the article after it moved it, which means
that it thinks that it didn't fail.

So based on this log, it really looks like it should have worked...
