problem with group levels

problem with group levels

[joakim]

I have set different levels on a number of groups using "S l". The most
important groups have level 1, others level 3 etc.

Then I filter to group level 1 using "c-u 1 l", and I see only messages
in the level 1 groups. Good. Then I read the messages and then there are
no groups listed anymore. Thats also good.

Now, the bad part happens when i use "g" to fetch mails, and I dont see
any groups even though they have received messages. If I just do "l",
the messages appear.

I guess I haven't RTFM properly, but what am I doing wrong? Do I really
need to do first "l" and then "c-u 1 l" again?

Have you customized gnus-group-use-permanent-levels?

Thanks.

I did try this earlier and I thought it didn't help, but now that I test
again it does seem to work!
