I'm starting with 'nnfolder:mail.misc' and will eventually craft a gnifty mail sorter-filter-percolater to toss mail in multiple groups. My problem is this: occasionally I'll get a new mail message and want to read it without checking all my newsgroups for new messages. Since I'm currently using only one mail group, I 'j' to the group if it's not on the screen already, then 'ESC g' to get only that group. This only works until I start splitting my mail. What's the best way to update only my mail and not my news?
