In 0.93 all groups except thoose containing SPC works. I guess the
Gnus Agent have to escape " " in the active file into "? " too.

With pgnus 0.93 and nnimap 0.122 I still get "*" in front of every
nnimap group when (gnus-agentize) is used.  Commenting out this
statement makes it work again.

How can I help to debug this?

Does it help to remove ~/News/agent/*/*/agent.lib/groups and have them
regenerated when starting Gnus?  You might want to backup the files,
of course.

I exited Gnus and Emacs, then did

mv News/agent/nnimap/unnamed/agent.lib/groups News/agent/nnimap/unnamed/agent.lib/groups.SAV

then re-enabled (gnus-agentize), then started Emacs, then Gnus -- same
problem.

If you have `gnus-read-active-file' set to nil, it's likely that the
changes to the agent a few days ago broke something.  I should test
that...

I have `some'.  Same bug?

No, if it's some, then I don't understand where the bug is coming
from.  Hm.  0.95 has some changes in this area -- does it fix this for 
you?

No.  Additional data point: I quit Gnus, enabled (gnus-agentize) in
~/.gnus, restarted Gnus, got "*".  After that I quit Gnus again,
commented out (gnus-agentize) in ~/.gnus and started Gnus again (from
the same Emacs).  The "*" remained.

Does nnimap support nnimap-retrieve-groups?

Hm.  Uhm.  Hm.

Has anybody gotten the rewritten Agent (that is, after the last "bug
fix") to work with nnimap?  I did some rather wide-ranging changes
here and there (when `g'-ing and the like), and I'm sure I broke lots
of stuff...

With a patch that was included in 0.96 I was able to use the Agent
with nnimap, I _think_ Kai tried the patch and it still didn't work. I
recall asking Kai to try to start+exit Gnus twice, and then things
started working. I think. Kai?

Yes.  I _think_ it didn't work and then I exited Gnus and started it
and then it worked.

I now know the cause of the slowness I reported: the first message in
nnimap:INBOX (it is ticked) is almost 1MB...

Now if I could find out which messages are downloaded by the
Agent...  It used to be only the unread ones were downloaded, but I
think it now does all of them.  At least the ticked ones.  Hm.

(I have two categories which have predicate true, no groups, and score
nil.  I have gnus-agent-handle-level to something I like, though.)

But the good news is: I think the Agent will work just dandy with
nnimap -- I only need to get around to using it.

This is being posted from the Agent, so if you see this, it worked.
Hah!

Good job, Lars and Simon!  I just *love* Gnus!
