Not only wrong count numbers, but also you can apparently lose unread e-mails when you enter a group (and then you don't see them again even with C-u M-g). This makes the innocent user angry. I would like that users are not required to remember that nnimap+agent=chaos, but that Gnus remembers this to the user in case it is needed (i.e. when enabling it). Could we add some sort of warning or confirmation to avoid enabling nnimap+agent by mistake? At least until it is fixed. -- Daniel
