I have a different problem, which is that on one imap server, but not the other, articles in INBOX show up again after being deleted. I work around this by 'rm -rf ~/News/agent'. Both setups are NetBSD/i386 4_STABLE with recent dovecot 1.0.x, emacs 22.1, and gnus trunk. I also access both servers with Apple Mail.app, iphone, and thunderbird. So, I think your problem might be that the local gnus has a cache about metadata for the article and is showing it, but really you've deleted it, so when you select it fetching fails. I think that caching information about imap is basically too dnagerous, at least without somehow validating it. I've tried to turn it off, but haven't managed to: (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnimap "[redacted]" (nnimap-address "[redacted]") (nnimap-port 993) (nnimap-stream ssl) (nnimap-authenticator login) (nnir-search-engine imap) (gnus-agent-cache nil) )))
