Here is my relevant .gnus: (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnmaildir "" (directory "~/mail/maildirs") (create-directory ".") ) (nntp "news.gmane.org"))) I have fetchmail deliver directly into the various maildirs in ~/mail/maildirs/*, and I'm seeing weird (wrong) unread article counts, like this: 425: nnmaildir:dave@example.com even if I have no unread mail in that group. When I enter such a group, the number quickly reverts to zero and the cursor just moves down in the group buffer to the next group. Ideas? Second question: I would like to rename that group. Since I have a lot of nnmaildir: groups, I'd like to say 'j' to jump, then type 'dave@' and do completion. But as it stands I have to type 'nnmaildir:dave@' then do completion. Is there a way to make this quicker? Third question: I'm also wondering wondering what the best strategy for splitting is. 1. I want to continue to use nnmaildir as the select method 2. I don't want to split into different maildirs (since they don't do crossposting elegantly). Any suggestions? Dave
