I am using Gnus off of CVS fresh as of this morning. 

I actually had to set the variable explicitly for it to work with
Exchange 2007.  My mailbox was migrated from 2003 to 2007 yesterday, and
the different uidvalidity values seemed to cause some trouble that I was
able to work around by killing the problematic groups, do "delete bogus
groups" and re-subscribe them.

Now however I'm seeing a different problem: When replying to messages
and Gcc: to the group/folder I'm replying in, the message gets sent but
I get the following backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument numberp "*:*")
  signal(wrong-type-argument (numberp "*:*"))

I suppose the backtrace happens when it stores the Gcc: copy.  The copy
makes it into the group just fine, and the email gets sent to all the
recipients.  If I send without Gcc:, I don't get the backtrace.

Any pointers would be welcome.

Thanks,

Bjorn.
