Hi Andy,

> I've tracked this down and I'll push a fix shortly.

I've tested your patch and it seems to work fine.  The `current' select
method (nnimap) fails to find the article in the current group, and
instead of inserting a pseudo article and stopping, now the second best
`gnus-refer-article-method' (nnregistry) gets a chance and finds the
article in my INBOX.

So the bug is fixed.  Thanks a lot! :-)

What remains as a feature suggestion is that the nnimap backend could
check the other (subscribed) IMAP folders of that select method, too, if
the current folder doesn't contain the article one tries to refer.

The benefit over the gnus registry is that it'll work even for articles
you didn't read with Gnus (and thus are not registered) and with
articles you've moved on the server using some other mail client, like
your mail provider's web frontend or the mail app of your smartphone.

Bye,
Tassilo
