Starting with caught up group, on-line, checking new news 'g' found one new message. 'G E' Reports: ("nntp+netnews.att.net:comp.lang.lisp" 5 ((1 . 134220)) ((seen (134215 . 134220))) "nntp:netnews.att.net") Download message, exit gnus, exit emacs. Now restart emacs and start reading news offline. Still see one new message. 'G E' reports: ("nntp+netnews.att.net:comp.lang.lisp" 5 ((1 . 134220)) ((seen (134215 . 134220))) "nntp:netnews.att.net") Unchanged. Read the message (still offline).

Now go online 'J j' and download new news, see: one new message: 'G E' Reports: ("nntp+netnews.att.net:comp.lang.lisp" 5 ((1 . 134220)) ((seen (134215 . 134221))) "nntp:netnews.att.net") Previous message is now considered unread but seen! Unfortunately this is not always repeatable, and a new message needs to be seen when new news is checked to trigger this error. -- Barry Fishman
