Subject: Removing gaps by moving articles from group x to group x doesn't work
Date: 28 Jan 2001 20:50:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87elxnjytm.fsf@lynx.ionific.com> (raw)

Greetings,

I have an nnml group with several thousand articles.  The group has
about 100 ticked articles.  Whenever I enter the group, Gnus says:
"How many articles from xxxx (default 598):".  I recall this
happens because Gnus can't determine the correct number of articles
because of gaps in the nnml article numbering or something like
that and I also recall that moving all articles of the group to
that same group should remove those gaps and fix the situation.
However, if I do that, nothing changes --- it still prompts me
telling that there are 598 articles.  How can I fix the problem?
