I have removed gnus-agent-fetch-selected-article from gnus-select-article-hook but the summary still highlights incorrectly the downloaded ones with gnus-summary-normal-undownloaded-face in few of my nnimap groups. I tried removing the agent cache and gnus-agent-regenerate but that didn't help. Attached screen shot. here is my gnus-summary-line-format. (setq gnus-summary-line-format "%U%R%z%5N%O %(%8&user-date; %~(pad 2)~(max 2)~(ignore \"1\")t%[%5k:%* %-20,20n%] %B%s%)\n") where should i start debugging this problem? -- Danny Siu
