In any case, I have had to un-agentise my gmail server as it wasn't picking up any new emails that google was automatically tagging with other labels. So emails that, from google's point of view, would appear in INBOX as well as another "folder" simultaneously were being ignored by gnus. Not sure why. Very strange. Then again, google does do some rather non-standard things from what I can tell. It's imap but not as we know it... ;-) -- : Eric S Fraga (GnuPG: 0xC89193D8FFFCF67D) in Emacs 24.0.50.1 + No Gnus v0.18
