When I try to enter the group "mail/unsure", which is an mbox file on
the IMAP server, created by procmail, I always get the message:

nnimap: Group mail/unsure is not uidvalid.  Continue? (yes or no)

Typing 'yes' just gives the same question again.

It always happens, and only with this group. 'uidvalid' made me think
it had something to do with permissions, so I've checked them and
they're the same as for the other folders. I've also tried deleting
the folder (on the server and with G DEL in Gnus) and letting it be
re-created.

I have 'solved' it with this:

(defun nnimap-verify-uidvalidity (group server)
  t)

But I don't know what I've done now at all so I'm not sure if it will
break something. 

What does it mean and what should I do?

Gnus 5.9.0, Emacs 21.2.1.
