Hi,

I can't seem to use '[123]g' and friends to get mail at a particular
level. I get new mail and I type '2g'. I get a list of:

nnml: Reading incoming mail from directory...
nnml: Reading incoming mail (no new mail)...done
nnml: Reading incoming mail from directory...
nnml: Reading incoming mail (no new mail)...done
nnml: Reading incoming mail from directory...
nnml: Reading incoming mail (no new mail)...done
nnml: Reading incoming mail from directory...
nnml: Reading incoming mail (no new mail)...done

and the newly arrived mail does not get into its group. If I use 'g',
the mail shows up in the correct spool. Here is what I think are
relevant variables:

(setq gnus-select-method '(nntp "news.freenet.de")
      gnus-secondary-select-methods
      '((nnml "")			; Incoming Mail
	;; (nntp "news.freshmeat.net")
	(nntp "News.CIS.DFN.DE")
	(nntp "news.jhu.edu")
	;; (nntp "news.creativelabs.com")
	;; (nntp "msnews.microsoft.com")
	(nnfolder ""))		; Saved Mails
      nnml-get-new-mail t
      nnfolder-get-new-mail nil
      nnfolder-directory "~/mail"
      nnfolder-nov-directory "~/mail/NOV"
      nntp-connection-timeout 10
      gnus-activate-level 3
      mail-sources
      '((directory
	 :path "~/.spool/"
	 :suffix "")))

I poked around in gnus-group-get-new-news but without much luck. Any
pointers are appreciated.
