Dear all,

Further on my problems expiring email to a group specified by a string
in nnmail-expiry-target.

Having set nnimap-record-commands to t, and setting nnmail-expiry-target
to "expired-2014-04", I see the following in the *imag log* buffer when
I leave my main INBOX group:

,----
| 17:44:22 [outlook.office365.com] 3827 SELECT "INBOX".
| 17:44:22 [outlook.office365.com] 3828 UID COPY 84602,84604:84606 ...
| 17:44:24 [outlook.office365.com] 3829 SELECT "INBOX".
| 17:44:24 [outlook.office365.com] 3830 UID STORE 84859,84858,84857, ... 84602 +FLAGS.SILENT (\Deleted).
| 17:44:28 [outlook.office365.com] 3831 UID EXPUNGE 84859,84858,84857, ... 84602.
| 17:45:09 [outlook.office365.com] 3832 LIST "" "*".
| ...
| 17:45:09 [outlook.office365.com] 3852 EXAMINE "expired-2014-04".
`----

where ... replaces a number of email IDs or folders from the LIST
command.  What I see is the emails copied and then expunged and the
folder does appear in the list for that server.  However, when I try to
access that folder, I am getting the following:

,----
| Opening nnimap server on ucl-ephemeral...
| Opening connection to outlook.office365.com via tls...
| Quit trying to open server nnimap+ucl-ephemeral
| Opening nnimap server on ucl-ephemeral...failed: NO expired-2014-04 doesn't exist.
| gnus-group-read-ephemeral-group: Unable to contact server: NO expired-2014-04 doesn't exist.
`----

and that's it.  My emails are lost.  Somehow the copy doesn't seem to
actually create a proper group on the IMAP server.

thanks,
eric
