crashing into a gnus-downloadable-mark

[Gijs Hillenius]

Hello

Handling a lot of email, my fingers often accidentally key in all kinds
of keys and keycombinations.. somehow I've managed to mark a IMAP email
message with a "%" (percentage symbol) .

From the docs, I learned I might have explicitly marked the article for
download. 

I would like the docs to tell me also how to unmark it.

There must be something more I need to do. That mark is stuck :-/ it
returns when I quit and entered the group..

Yes :-) tho I whish it otherwise.

I have a feeling it is not a regular % mark. I can mark some other
articles as downloadable, (so they also have a % in the first column)
and there the marks dissapear when I quit the group and enter it once
more.

Moving the message to another nnimap folder does not solve the
issue. Marking the message ! has no effect, quit/enter the group and it
will be marked % again.
