Hi,
in latest CVS Simon Josefsson has updated the way uidvalidity is
stored.
,----[ ChangeLog ]
| 2000-10-08 Simon Josefsson <simon@josefsson.org>
|
| * nnimap.el (nnimap-verify-uidvalidity): Delete overview file
| when uid validity changes.
| (nnimap-group-overview-filename): Store uidvalidity in filenames.
| Rename old files into new format.
`----
It seems the "rename" part doesn't work - at least for me it
didn't create its directories, so the rename failed with
"Renaming: no such file or directory, ".
If I create the novcache directory by hand (.../ding/952519011/, eg)
everything works fine.
regards,

Sorry, it didn't handle non-nil {gnus,nnmail}-use-long-file-name's
correctly. Fixed in CVS.

Works, but now I'm getting:
File already exists: /home/dir/News/overview/nnimap/srv/grp/943549114/novcache
Once for each group, only the first time I access it.
Does the upgrade part try to create things twice?
regards,

It did, `rename-file' and `copy-file' doesn't return anything useful.
Should be fixed in CVS. Here's the current logic:
(when (and (file-exists-p oldfile) (not (file-exists-p newfile)))
(message "nnimap: Upgrading novcache filename...")
(sit-for 1)
(gnus-make-directory (file-name-directory newfile))
(unless (ignore-errors (rename-file oldfile newfile) t)
(if (ignore-errors (copy-file oldfile newfile) t)
(delete-file oldfile)
(error "Can't rename `%s' to `%s'" oldfile newfile))))
