Hi,

When flagging messages in a nnvirtual group that is built from nnimap
groups the flags are not propagated through to the back-end imap server.

Flagging in a nnvirtual group and then changing to one of the member
nnimap groups shows the flag set in the nnimap group.  So, something is
happening to make the local copy look like it's okay.  But it's
misleading as the nnimap group no longer reflects the server.

Not sure how I might configure this away or if this is a bug/feature?

Cheers,

Matt

Looking at the code, it looks like this should work.

`gnus-update-read-articles' is called, which calls
`gnus-request-set-mark', which should set the marks on the server.

Could you edebug through `gnus-update-read-articles' and see what
(doesn't) happen?
