This really should be a FAQ.
Since Gnus treats all groups like newsgroups, it simply finds the
difference between the last and first article numbers. When you have large
holes in your mail groups, Gnus will give you a high message count.
One way to "fix" this is to 'B m' all the articles back into the same
group. This will renumber all of them sequentially. I wouldn't bother
with this, though, unless it really bothers you to see that high article
count.
