Subject: Primary select method switch
Date: Mon, 25 Sep 2023 11:47:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m1zg1ar3du.fsf@didierverna.net> (raw)


  Hello,

for several decades, I had an nntp select method as the primary one. Now
the server is dead and I wanted to make my gmail account the main one.
So I (naively) set gnus-select-method to the nnimap server, removed it
from gnus-secondary-select-methods, and restarted Gnus.

Now I have all my gmail groups duplicated. The old ones (named
nnimap+gmail:***) with all their marks are still here, but for each one,
I now also have a *** (no prefix) one, without any marks.

Is there a way to recover from this mess ?

Thank you !
