Hello Gnusers,
I have gnus files .gnus.el, .gnus.eld, .newsrc .newsrc.eld and also News
and Mail folders synchronized through Dropbox. After having read mails on
one machine I still can see on another machine in the *group* buffer
these mails as unread. Restarting gnus, or "g" on the group doesn't
help. After entering the group, a summary will display with no unread
mail though.
How can I help it? Are there other gnus files which I am not
synchronizing?
Gnus v5.13 with emacs 23.3.1 on debian here.
The only settings relevant to groups in gnus.el:
(add-hook 'gnus-select-group-hook 'gnus-group-set-timestamp)
Thanks,
Vitalie.

On a related note, if I send to a mail list (through imap) which I am
subscribed to, gnus in the *Group* buffer start showing (after some
time) one new unread mail (my mail of course) when I enter the group the
summary buffer contains no unread mail.
What is going on here, really? In both of my problems above gnus
actually knows that I have no unread mail, but "*Group*" buffer still
shows them as unread.
Vitalie.

.newsrc-dribble may also be relevant...

Thanks, I synchronized all gnus directories and it works properly now.
Here is my full sync setup in case anyone else will ever stumble on this.
(require 'gnus)
(setq message-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/Mail/"
gnus-home-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/"
gnus-default-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/"
gnus-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/News/"
gnus-article-save-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/News/"
gnus-kill-files-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/News/"
gnus-cache-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/News/cache/"
)
;;;;_ ARCHIVE
;; takes effect only on the very first initialization of gnus
(setq gnus-message-archive-method
'(nnfolder "archive"
(nnfolder-inhibit-expiry t)
(nnfolder-get-new-mail nil)
(nnfolder-active-file "~/Dropbox/.main/Mail/archive/active")
(nnfolder-directory "~/Dropbox/.main/Mail/archive")))
;; (setq gnus-update-message-archive-method t) ;; doesn't seem to work
as advertised, edit gnus.eld directly to have an effect
Cheers,
Vitalie.
