I have a custom expiry-target that decides where a message lands up after it has expired. I have not changed this function since I switched to nnimap and the behavior I describe is nnimap-specific. Each time expiry happens and an article gets moved to one of my nnfolder archive groups, some ghost messages appear in that group. Here is the *Summary* buffer from one of them. 12/31/99 [nobody ] (none) Sep 15 [-> xxx xxxxxx ] xxx@xx36216-x.xxxx1.xx.xxxx.xxx xxxx xxx xxxx The ghost article looks like this with C-u g: ,---- | X-From-Line: nobody Tue Sep 25 17:35:00 2001 | Message-ID: | Lines: 0 | Xref: fermat.mts.jhu.edu Archive-2001-Sep:619 | X-Gnus-Article-Number: 619 Tue Sep 25 17:35:00 2001 `---- This behavior is repeatable.
