For example: find . -name .overview | xargs grep OF5FE6F041.9810635D-ON86256BAD.00692342@norlight.com ./lists/debian/private/.overview [...] find . -name .overview | xargs grep E8F83D6D2A6AD3118E0300902786A20502371482@NTEX ./lists/linuxppc/embedded/.overview [...] [etc, etc -- none of those messages are being sent to mail.misc] Anyone know what's going on here? There's another problem here, I think. About 100 messages were sitting in mail/misc, but the group still indicated that there were 3 messages in it (3 very old messages). M-g, C-u RET, etc didn't update the number or let me see the messages. not only that, but after exiting Gnus and starting it back up all messages in mail.misc were deleted (save for the original 3 which like to stick around for some reason :) Fortunately I had already skimmed the messages using less before this happened and there was nothing important in them. So, it seems I've stumbled across 2 problems -- the cache file indicates an incorrect group name where a messages was filed, and when nnmail-split-fancy-with-parent stored the new messages acording to the cache file, the group information (low/high message numbers) wasn't updated. (or something like that...I didn't get a chance to see what happened). Anyone use this stuff? I'll start looking at the code to see what went wrong in the meantime. Thanks, -- Josh Huber
