| I know gnus doesn't push read marks back to the server until the group
| is exited, and I wonder if there's some other kind of synchroniziation
| issue.  I'll enable imap logging and look at this, but I wanted to ask
| if anyone else is seeing this, with dovecot, or with any other IMAP
| server.

Yes, I do both on Linux 2.4 and NetBSD-4 with courier-imap 3.0.8 using
GNU Emacs 22.0.97.1 and ngnus 0.6.

I do exactly the same "procedure" except I'm not running any other
imap client paralell (like thunderbird or new mail notify stuff).

Usually I have to exit from gnus and restart it to recognize the new mails.
