Are you also storing Gnus-specific flags, like expire and dormant, on the server? If so, you may want to look out for servers that don't allow storing custom flags. Look for the presence of \* in the PERMANENTFLAGS response. I think the old nnimap stored these flags on the server if supported, and only locally in .newsrc.eld otherwise. Looking forward to testing it! :) -- Knut Anders
