Ah, yes.  With M-g on the group it does a full update of the marks the
same way the old nnimap backend does ("UID FETCH FLAGS 1:*", I think),
but with a 'g' in the group buffer it uses QRESYNC together with the
information cached in .newsrc.eld.

Using QRESYNC failed on some servers in the early days of the rewritten
nnimap.

Using dovecot, I haven't seen any issues since the new nnimap was new
and still work in progress (August to November 2010, according to the
git log, 1b47313d04b1f29cc08ba329375cbb7aba0a6c33 seems to be the
earliest change).

Well, if it crops up again, try M-g.

What IMAP server is this?
