Aha -- this works! But why is this different then having my gnus-activate-level set to 1? Does nnimap (or Gnus proper) ignore this variable unless specified explicitly in the call to gnus-group-get-new-news? Or am I attributing more power to gnus-activate-level then it deserves?

I guess thought this affected subsequent requests, too. My bad.... Though, I swear this is not honored on startup, either. At least by nnimap (I'm not sure how to check nntp).
