Re: bad (i.e. serious) mail problems

[Shane Holder <holder@rsn.hp.com>]

I just had this same experience, but under nnfolder.  I had updated my
group buffer by typing `G' and Gnus showed that I had 1 piece of mail
in my mail group, but when I entered that group `<space>' the
num. articles in the group buffer just went to 0.  I then tried
C-<space> and the summary didn't show any new articles, but when I
edited the file (nnfolder backend) an e-mail exists that doesn't show
up in the summary buffer when Gnus is used.

My active file shows what I think should be the proper number of
articles.

perl 37 1 y

and here are the headers for the article.

No other articles in this nnfolder share the same article number, so
it's not the same problem I've reported under the "pop wierdness"
thread.
