Spurred by recent Maildir discussions, I'm just getting back to
this. I'm running courier-imap 0.33 on FreeBSD 3.4.  The server works
fine with other imap-enabled apps. Client is Gnus 5.8.2, Xemacs version 21.1;
May 1999. Redhat 6.2.

I have no imap-related code in my .gnus. I simply open the server from
the server menu and access the folders from the Group
buffer. Everything is working as expected until I try to select an
article in the summary buffer and am always told that the article does
not exist or has been cancelled. There is no lisp error.

I'd appreciate direction as to how to debug this. I'd really like to
get it going... Most of my mail is in nnml folders, but I need to keep
business-related mail in an imap environment so that I can also
sometimes access it from a windows box in order to read all of the
.doc and .xls files (they seem to stay one jump ahead of staroffice in
terms of real compatability.)

Thanks for any help.
