D'oh! I'm running with `nntp-marks-is-evil' set to t. Gah. I thought
I had cleared out all customisations in this area...
There's a fundamental difference between the marks stored in IMAP and
the marks stored on the nntp backend. The former is useful. The latter
just duplicates the information in the .newsrc.eld file locally, and
isn't particularly.
I thought I had finally separated out the two different things, and
defaulted the former to on and the latter to off, but nope.
I'll fix it up, but not tonig..., er, this morning.
