Hm, the function in gnus-move-group-prefix-function does the job of inserting the part to complete. Here, if I want to move an article in nnmaildir+Fastmail:INBOX.foo, it will use "nnmaildir+Fastmail:" as default, which is nearly what you want (the mail/ is missing). Do you have several nnimap servers, one unnamed, and want to move an article from a group of the unnamed server? That would explain the behaviour you see. Bye, Tassilo
