Ahem, anyways, fetching using nndiary-mail-sources and IMAP does not appear to mark the messages as read on the server. So I guess gnus keeps track of what it has downloaded for the nndiary group (in the .newsrc.eld?). So maybe this simple solution would work for you without writing a whole nnimap interface. The biggest drawback I can imagine is that you cannot edit the files on the IMAP server, so if a meeting time changes it does not do so automatically. Cheers, Jody -- Jody M.
