OK so maybe I've inadvertantly diddled up my gmail settings on gmail.
I'm checking that now.
tried first full removal of all nnimap (server and all)
Restart check Server buffer... no nnimap
OK now eval this:
(add-to-list 'gnus-secondary-select-methods '(nnimap "hputnam3"
(nnimap-address "imap.gmail.com")
(nnimap-server-port 993)
(nnimap-stream ssl)))
Resubscribe to some of the groups
And its the same baloney as before... I'm not seeing new mail or all
the old mail.
OK not tried this:
backup and delete .newsrc.eld
start emacs, start gnus
Of course my carefully built topics tree is gone
now eval secondary select as above.
Subscribe to some groups
Same old jive as before...
Again no new mail shows up.
OK, checked thoroughly as I know how, the settings on gmail.
I see imap enabled in every single group.
next I will go to a newuser name and start from absolute scratch,
including a new gmail account to match that user.
