I'm pretty sure the problem is with the agent. Here's a way to repeat it: 1. Start with two unread and undownloaded messages in a group. 2. Read the first message. 3. Move the second message to another group with `B m' without reading it. 4. Exit the group. 5. Re-enter the same group. The second message shows up in the summary buffer, but it not possible to look at it. It has not been downloaded and it is not on the server. This only happens if gnus-agent-mark-unread-after-downloaded is nil. Setting g-a-m-u-a-d to non-nil makes the problem go away. I saw this a lot because I used the spam functionality to do step 3 above and assumed that that was the culprit. Thanks for the other fixes in spam.el, though -- they were certainly not made in vain. I find the spam functionality much more stable now. Niklas
