IMAP unread count

IMAP unread count

[Frank Schmitt]

Hello,

Say I start Gnus on machine A, read mails in IMAP folder INBOX until
mail number 42. Then I start Gnus in machine B and catchup in the same
IMAP folder so both have the same unread status. Then mail 43 arrives, I
read it in the Gnus on machine B, so there unread count is 0. When I say
g in summary buffer of machine A, I still get an unread count of 1.

I had the impression there was a patch for this long standing (and
irritating) bug. Am I mistaken or wasn't it incorporated or is my Gnus
too old?

I searched and the thread I was referring to was
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.gnus.general/67238 where Vitaly
Mayatskikh proposed a solution to the issues. I CC Vitaly.
