I've just upgraded to 5.8.6, and have come across these problems problem number 1) drafts is broken, but, i'll have a look through the archives before i get stuck into that problem, i know a few other people have had that happen to them. problem number 2) i can't make a nnimap group named fnorb. i've currently got a group foo, and i want to move everything in that to a new group called fnorb. i try 500 B m fnorb RET and i get: No such group: nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:fnorb. Create it? (y or n) Yes Couldn't create group nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:fnorb i've done this for a myriad of other groups, but it's just this group that doesn't let me do it. problem number 3) when i first started using imap, i just used it as a backend, that is, i just made a new foreign group and used the nnimap backend. now i'm doing things properly and have made a mail-source list to include the imap server. It does appear to be working: nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:inbox... nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:inbox...done nnml: Reading incoming mail from imap... Waiting for response from mailhost.dstc.edu.au...done but every imap folder also gets checked: nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:students... nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:students...done nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:andy... nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:andy...done nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:anthony... nnimap: Updating info for nnimap+mailhost.dstc.edu.au:anthony...done ... for about thirty folders, which is starting to get a little slow :) any help would be appreciated, thanks
