For messages kept on an IMAP mail server (accessed via nnimap), the act of clearing the tick mark (on the server) does not make it to gnus. I've tried setting/unsetting the tick (I think it is called "Flagged" on the imap end) using thunderbird, and the unticking is not "seen" by gnus, where ticking does work. Setting gnus-agent-synchronize-flags to t does not solve the unticking-not-seen problem. Any further suggestions? (I've tried accessing the imap inbox from a newly created test account in order to make sure that some old gnus-related cruft is causing the problem, but no change.)
