I don't have any score rules in place like that.

No.  My steps were.. Delete .marks and .overview
Run nnml-gen-n-db-1 ~/Mail2/todo

`.overview' contains info on all seven.  Each entry has this one odd
section: 	fake+none+133

Where the terminating number starts at 127 and goes to 133
`.marks' contains `nil'

Now entering with M-<RET> shows:

 1   24-Nov [   0: 1124183958@reader   ] start the coffee now
 1   24-Nov [   0: 1124184059@reader   ] start the coffee later
 1   24-Nov [   0: 1124190303@reader   ] something 6:30
 1   24-Nov [   0: 1124190639@reader   ] some1006657599 1006657602

C-u Z R once inside doesn't show any more.
However `j <number> will pull up those that are missing


Can you tell me briefly how gnus enters a message into a group? I mean
what gnus adds to the message and what it keeps track of.  I realize
nov will get whatever I've stipulated but assume defaults.

A further detail is that `M-c' from group (remove all data) doesn't
change the picture either.
