Subject: [PATCH] nnimap: Checking mailbox %s vs. Updating info for %s
Date: 20 Apr 2000 16:20:42 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <wkln28bk2t.fsf@pobox.com> (raw)
A couple of months ago I sent in a bug report detailing how moving
or copying a message from an nnimap group on one IMAP server to an
nnimap group on another IMAP server causes a bogus server entry in
the *Server* buffer with the result that subsequent invocations of
gnus-group-get-new-news cause the dreaded "Updating info for %s"
vs. the much faster "Checking mailbox %s".
Simon sent out a patch which resolved this problem, and which I've
been using successfuly since. I just installed Gnus 5.8.4 and it
looks like Simon's patch didn't make it into the release. I've
applied his patch to 5.8.4 and it still fixes the bug without
apparent problems.
So, I'm including Simon's patch here in the hopes that it can be
added to CVS. Thanks.

| * gnus-sum.el (gnus-read-move-group-name):
| (gnus-summary-move-article): Use `gnus-group-method' to find out
| what method the manually entered group belong to.
| `gnus-group-name-to-method' doesn't return any method parameters
| and `gnus-find-method-for-group' uses `gnus-group-name-to-method'
| for new groups so they wouldn't work.
