My present main group is "nnml:mail.misc_2012", and if I ask to enter it, gnus tells me I can see a grand total of 14,394 articles. If I say okay, it takes a while, and then produces a summary buffer with 11,207 lines in it. Filtering on authors, for instance, omits some messages that I know are in the group, because I can go to them by article number, and there they are -- clearly messages that should have been shown by the author filter. The weirdness extends to nnir/namazu. If I conduct a namazu search on the command line for a particular author, I get nine results. If I do that exact same search via GG in the *Group* buffer, I get five of those nine results, plus an extra one that has nothing to do with my search criteria, and didn't appear on the command line. Looking at the command line results, I can use "j" in the summary buffer to jump to the correct message, but gnus won't show me those messages otherwise. What the heck is going on here? Why so many different types of results? Running "wc -l" in the "misc_2012" directory shows me 14,349, and this is also the number that appears in the "active" file. 14,394 is the number in my .newsrc.eld file, and what I'm offered when I ask to see all messages. 11,207 is apparently what I get when I see "all" messages. Does anyone know what might be going on? Is there some sort of "reset" option that will re-sync all the appropriate numbers? Thanks, Eric
