Lars> Do you have `nnmail-keep-last-article' set?
Yes. To `t'. Reading the documentation for this variable, I'm not sure that
this should matter.
nnmail-keep-last-article's value is t
-- a variable declared in Lisp.
Documentation:
If non-nil, nnmail will never delete the last expired article in a directory.
You may need to set this variable if other programs are putting
new mail into folder numbers that Gnus has marked as expired.
The articles are not expired. It's simply the last (ie, highest numbered)
article in the folder that I want to `B DEL', make go bye-bye. Also, Gnus
is the only program writing messages to these folders.
