It will not open the offending group no matter how many times I tell it to open, but when I did a 'Catch-up' I was able to open the group! Of course, then all is marked read, but at least I can see the mail. So odd, because Gnus is still filtering the messages out of the inbox, it just does not want to let me back in without some work on my part! > Even more annoying is that within a group, when going from message to > message, all of a sudden gnus will complain about a message being > unavailable (cannot remember exact error).

I have had this happen to me as well. > It would seem that gnus thinks the connection to the MS IMAP system is > still open even though it has been closed. Once an error occurs, gnus > is happy to re-open the connection? Maybe. Be nice to find a work-around if this is the problem. Mind you, I don't have as many issues with say claws-mail and this server. > Just grasping at straws here, mind you. The real problem is Microsoft, > in my opinion. Agreed. Thanks for your suggestions. aric
