This is because `nnml' doesn't support `nnml-retrieve-groups' so the code I added which make partial mail checking fast for nnimap isn't used for nnml. Gnus will then scan the backend of each of your nnml groups on level 2 or lower. This patch try to make sure methods are only scanned once. I haven't tested it, please try it and tell us if it works. 1999-11-20 Simon Josefsson * gnus-start.el (gnus-get-unread-articles): Scan each method only once.
