Subject: wrong unread count after INBOX change

Hello,

As I modified my dovecot configuration, I had to change where the INBOX
is stored. It should have been transparent to gnus (I access my mail
locally through dovecot) but for some reason it confused it and gnus now
believe I have 3900 unread message in this INBOX, although there is
none. I tried doing 'g' and 'M-g' on it but it does not change anything.
If I hit 'ret' I get an error "Can't select group", and if I it 'C-u
ret' I see the expected 27 read messages.

How can I convince gnus to reset its unread count for this mailbox?

Thanks,

Alan
