As an example, mail.lists.info-cyrus claims (in my *Group* buffer) to have 1244 new messages, out of a possible 126 messages: 1244/ 126[0]: nnmaildir:mail.lists.info-cyrus The line in " *nntpd*" after nnmaildir-request-group is: 211 126 1197 1322 mail.lists.info-cyrus Does that help?

M-g does not help me at all. For me, after entering a group and exiting, the count is correct. (but, like you, a new mail causes the count to be invalid) With nnml I always had the problem where the total count was high (because of holes in the article numbers), but I never had the new message count be wrong...how is the new article count calculated? -- Josh Huber
