Even after a > full restart. You must've forgotten at least one of the small-numbered articles. For instance, I have this "auctex" group with only four articles in it, so I go: ~/Mail % ls auctex 1 12 37 61 and then I do (group buffer), 'B m' (or 'B r') on those four articles and I get: ~/Mail % ls auctex 62 63 64 65 and Gnus now thinks that there are only 4 messages in the group, which is correct, instead of (1+ (- 61 1)) ==> 61. Try entering the group with 'C-u RET' so you don't miss any of the articles, mark them all and do the 'B m' thing. No need to restart Gnus, just re-entering the group works for me. I just did this using Gnus v5.6.33, because the patch to make it v5.6.34 told me: solsona@deprof ...lisp/gnus/gnus-beta % patch -p 2 < gnus-5.6.33-5.6.34.diff.gz patching file `lisp/gnus-msg.el' patching file `lisp/gnus-score.el' patching file `lisp/gnus.el' patching file `lisp/ChangeLog' patching file `Makefile.in' patching file `Makefile.in' Hunk #1 FAILED at 16.
