It's happened with versions of Gnus from the CVS HEAD ever since I started using Gnus a couple years ago, and likewise with builds of Emacs from the CVS HEAD for the past couple years. I use `^' from my *Group* buffer and then I put the point on my nnimap server and hit return. Then I use 'u' in the... wait. Now it's not happening anymore. I do have two groups marked with 'K' in the left-hand column (what does that mean?), but the rest are either marked with 'U' or blank. This is *really* confusing. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
