Doing 'B m' on multiple files can be achieved by setting a region, but
not process marks. This seems odd to me. Should the latter be the
normal behaviour, rather than the former?

yes. hmm. It didn't work 20 minutes ago, but now I have posted to the
list a bogus problem, it does work. damn those pesky imps.

Here's a nit that has been around for awhile:
When I move a message from an IMAP folder (B m), leave the group (q),
and then re-enter the group in a way that would try to "fetch" that
message (for example if it were within the last 10 messages: C-u 10 SPC)
I get the infamous "Wrong type argument: number-char-or-marker-p, Re:"
error.
A 'g' will rectify the problem.

Whee. This sounds as if nnimap didn't clear the server buffer. When
you set debug-on-error to t, then look at the " *nnimap foo*" buffer
(note the leading space!), do you see anything suspicious? Also (setq
imap-debug "*imap-debug*") and (setq nnimap-debug "*nnimap-debug*"),
then have a look at those two buffers.
Note that the last two buffers get large extremely fast, so you should
try to reproduce the error soon after setting the variables.

Nope, nothing in the connection buffer...
Weird -- first error doesn't correctly enter the debugger...
But on the second try th traceback looks like this (the moved message
in question was probably 10423):
Signaling: (wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p Re:)
gnus-sorted-complement((10421 10422 Re: MB ANN: Announcing Multimedia) (10414 10415 10416 10417 10418 10419 10420 10421 10422 10423))
gnus-select-newsgroup("INBOX" 10 nil)
gnus-summary-read-group-1("INBOX" 10 nil nil nil nil)
gnus-summary-read-group("INBOX" 10 nil nil nil nil nil)
gnus-group-read-group(10 nil nil)
gnus-topic-read-group(10)
call-interactively(gnus-topic-read-group)
and something seems to be wrong with the debug tracing (current
CVS)....
...arghpssfft... I don't have time to track down the meta-problems at
the moment -- more later unless you can replicate the problem and
want to take a shot...
(The problem doesn't happen *all* the time on moves and deletes ... I
haven't quite narrowed it down to when...)
