I just ticked your message, and saw it appear starred in Gmail and
flagged in my other mail app.  After briefly wondering what was wrong
with me, I realized that ticks appear to be propagating for "new"
messages (where new means roughly initially received after I started
using GNUS) but somehow don't propagate for older messages.  I think
this is a fine state of affairs, so I'm all set.

Thanks for helping me realize my problem maybe isn't really a problem!
