If all else fails, you can still create the nnfolder+archive:foo.bar group with `G m', then use `G f' (say) to access the saved articles, then `M P a' to mark them all, then `B c' to copy them over to the nnfolder+archive:foo.bar group. Takes longer, but should be successful. Kai, who uses the gcc-self feature to have Gcc'd copies in the same groups as the incoming articles, and who uses gnus-use-cache == t and ticks news articles that are supposed to stay.
