Hi,
I've switched to IMAP server and have discovered that nnir searching on
IMAP only searches in the current group. Is there something I'm missing
or is this a known restriction ?
Thanks

It is slow to search all groups. If you want to search all groups,
you'll have to process mark the groups in the group buffer.
I suppose that nnir could be tweaked to list all groups and then
search them all, but this would too slow to be useful on many servers.

I use IMAP server locally, so this won't be slow ...
thanks anyway
