Maybe you can keep a dummy message in it? Does that help? Btw, I think a simpler way to reset uidvalidity is M-x gnus-group-clear-data RET on that group. Hm. And also, I remember that Simon did a change in this area for Oort Gnus. Hm. Ah, here: /----[ lisp/ChangeLog ] | 2001-07-06 Simon Josefsson | | * imap.el (imap-parse-address-list, imap-parse-flag-list) | (imap-parse-body-extension, imap-parse-body-ext, imap-parse-body): | Add information in `assert's. | | * nnimap.el (nnimap-possibly-change-group): Ignore uidvalidity | changes. (From nnimaps' point of view, `nnimap-verify-uidvalidity' | and `nnimap-group-overview-filename', should handle all | change-of-uidvalidity related issues. But there may be other | problems.) \---- Does it help to upgrade to a version which has this change? kai -- ~/.signature: No such file or directory
