What buffers do I look in? What do I look for in those buffers? Are there debug options to switch on? What I've done so far, is to use WireShark and also trying to step through entering a group on the server in edebug. Neither of these has made me any wiser. As far as I can tell from the WireShark grab, there is a seemingly OK IMAP dialog between Gnus and the server. But the result in Gnus is rather disappointing, A single article shows up in the summary, looking like this: O. [ ?: nobody ] (none) Entering that article displays an article that looks OK, and looks like it could be the article in question, based on the time it was sent. (The server in question is davmail, running on a debian testing machine)
