unwanted archive groups ?!

unwanted archive groups ?!

[Didier Verna]

	As of pgnus0.74, I've got something strange happening from time to
time: I receive a mail which visibly doesn't go to any of my folders. I quit
and restart gnus, and then I get a new
nnml+archive+<the folder it should have gone to> group, containing the
message. Pressing B r respools the message in the good folder this time.

	I use nnmail-split-method to sort the messages, and the only
archive-related stuff I have is this:

(setq gnus-message-archive-group
      '((if (message-news-p) "sent-news" "sent-mails")))

This sounds like the archive nnml server is snarfing the mail instead
of the other nnml server.  For some reason or other.

This has happened perodically both to me and to other people using Gnus
here for quite a while, but with the nnml+sent server.  It's either a
really long-standing bug, or one that's been fixed and has come back in a
different form.

I've heard reports of this happening, too.

This has been happening to me fairly frequently lately. One of the
next times I see it I'll try and debug it hopefully.
