I did the above two method, but seems it doesn't work.

My problem is that: when enter gnus with new mail for the first time,
gnus doesn't report the right number of new messages in the group
buffer(the messages buffer show the correct number). e.g. sometimes a
group with new mail will not appear(I configure gnus show the groups
only have new message) in the group buffer, other ones with less(seems)
new messages stand there. Then I quit gnus and start it again, the
disappeared group which has new messages now appear. Now I'm confused.
