I'm using the latest gnus-5.8.4 from the CVS tree.
I would like to sequentially renumber the messages within an nnmail
directory. I know one way to do it is to mark all the messages, sort
them in the order I desire, use `B m' to move the messages to a new,
dummy group, to delete the old group, and to rename the dummy group
with the original group's name.
But is there a more direct way of renumbering the messages without
going through the dummy group creation and the message moving? I
couldn't find anything in the documentation.
If not, I can live with the method I outlined above ... I'm just
wondering if there might also be something with fewer steps.
Thanks in advance.

You can move the messages from the group foo to the group foo. This
means numbers won't start at 1, but that's not a problem, is it?
