I've got two select methods: one IMAP server and one NNTP server.  New
articles do not show up in the IMAP groups unless I use
(gnus-group-get-new-news t).  However, the NNTP server does not have
this problem.  I'd like not to have to read 300K of active file over a
cross-country link every time I hit 'g'.  Is there any way to get the
effect of the 't' argument for just the IMAP server?

(Or, alternatively, anyone care to help me find what's wrong with
nnimap.el that it needs this?)

This is with today's CVS, by the way.
