I've been unable to repeat this with my nnml groups, though I rarely
if ever move to a group that gets mail from the spool (typically it's
the other way, the spool goes into my "temporary" groups that have
total-expire turned on and I B-m to groups in which I want to save
things.  Ironically, I'd almost want this behavior because on some
occasions that I can't seem to repeat anymore, when I do a B-m of an
article with a tick mark, the tick gets lost unless I do a M-g on the
group (or a g in the group buffer) prior to entering the group.
