I would get errors about the nnmairix group (or server?) not existing, I believe. Deleting and recreating the nnmairix group wouldn't help. Restarting Gnus wouldn't help. But I would fiddle around, enter the server buffer and try things, Esc-g the group, and usually could get it to work. Very strange. It was worse when I used a imap group to store the search results, but still sometimes happens with an nnmaildir group. I also found that using this custom search wrapper helped: (defun jdc-gnus-search nil (interactive) (pop-to-buffer "*Group*") (gnus-group-jump-to-group "nnmairix+mairixserver:nnmairixsearch") (ignore-errors (gnus-group-get-new-news-this-group)) (call-interactively 'nnmairix-search)) > And I hope you'll be willing to test the mairix support when it's > ready (I've already added the backend, but the query transformation > will take a bit more work).
