imap problem with agent cache?

[Mats Lidell]

Hi,

Just noticed that I'm getting lots of problems with the agent-cache
when I do things behind it's back. Like using another imap MUA that
does things to the folders. The summary buffer displayes articles not
available anymore. Infact the folder becomes rather useless before I
fix the problem.

Hopfully there is some way to invalidate the cache from inside of
Gnus but I haven't found it. My current solution is to remove the
agent-cache for the offending folder.

gnus-version: "Gnus v5.10.6"
emacs-version: "21.4 (patch 14) \"Reasonable Discussion\" XEmacs
Lucid"

I see the same thing here. Try running `gnus-agent-expire-group' and
choosing the offending group. That synchronizes the agent cache, but
I'm not sure why I have to run it manually.

Seems to do the trick yes. Thanks. (Since gnus finds out that the
overview is bad and removes it!?)

I don't think you should have to do it manually either. There must be
something wrong here.
