query on nndraft:queue group

query on nndraft:queue group

[Robert Pluim]

Hi,

I just tried sending an email whilst unplugged, and the message was
queued as expected. However, when I did 'g' from the *Group* buffer, the
nndraft:queue group still had '*' as its message count, I had to do an
explicit M-g on the group to get it to update.

Is this normal? Or is there a config option I can change? I'm *assuming*
I don't need to list an 'nndraft' method in my secondary servers, since
the group does show up.

Thanks

Robert

No.  What's the group level of the queue group?  It should default to 1,
which means that it's always updated.

Ignore the email reply you may just have got from me, it's bogus.

The group was set to level 3, but I just tried with it set to 1, and the
behaviour was the same.

Did you try switching Gnus off and then on again?

Damn, now you're asking me to save stuff & restart? The imposition!
:)

I exited gnus & restarted emacs. Same behaviour.

For good measure I tried setting the nndraft:drafts group to level 1 as
well, exited & restarted. No dice.

Help me Larsi, you're my only hope.

Are you sure your Emacs is plugged in?

Er...  how does the rest of this help desk script go...

What does `G E' on the group look like?

I tried both plugged & unplugged.

("nndraft:queue" 1 nil nil
 (nndraft "")
 ((gnus-dummy
   (gnus-draft-mode))))

Feel free to suggest a function for me to edebug :)

Looks OK to me.  Curiouser and curiouser.

It's mostly done by `gnus-get-unread-articles', but it's a really long
and complicated function.

For nndraft, the interesting bit should be the part after

    ;; Do the rest of the retrieval.
