I have a topic: Watch Under that topic a number of nnml:directories of certain groups. One is nnml:all-but-cron_ That group gets copies of all but a select few groups incoming mail. Sort of a fallback if I lose track of mail in one of the many many nnml groups. OK, it nearly always has unread messages. So one would expect what ever number that is would show up in the total shown at topic 'watch'. But what I see at topic watch is: [ watch -- 0 ]... No new messages whatsoever. Not only that but if I do C-u telling topic watch to spill its groups, it pops out with: [ watch -- 0 ] [ banks -- 0 ] 0: nnml:Chase 0: nnml:CarringtonBank 0: nnml:BankOfAmerica 0: nnml:DSCC 0: nnml:DSCB * 0: nnml:synchronyBankAlerts * 0: nnml:Golden1 But if I press 'j' and give the groupname: nnml:all-but-cron_ Look what happens: [ watch -- 0 ] 235: nnml:all-but-cron_ [ banks -- 0 ] 0: nnml:Chase 0: nnml:CarringtonBank 0: nnml:BankOfAmerica 0: nnml:DSCC 0: nnml:DSCB * 0: nnml:synchronyBankAlerts * 0: nnml:Golden1 It was there under watch all along... and with unread messages which should have shown at `watch' and C-u on watch should have dumped it into sight. So the topic watch neither registers the unread messaages in nnml:all-but-cron_ Nor displays nnml:all-but-cron_ when asked with C-u on `watch'. futher there are others with unread messages under there too: `J' nnml:inco and see what we get: [ watch -- 0 ] 256: nnml:inco 235: nnml:all-but-cron_ [ banks -- 0 ] 0: nnml:Chase 0: nnml:CarringtonBank 0: nnml:BankOfAmerica 0: nnml:DSCC 0: nnml:DSCB * 0: nnml:synchronyBankAlerts * 0: nnml:Golden1 nnml:inco comes out from under `watch' also with unread messages. This is all wrong wrong wrong... and I've never noticed something like it to happen. Can anyone offer a guess as to what is causing "topic modes'" misbehavior?
