Subject: nnimap, tick mark not synced when reading from 2 computers
Date: Sun, 25 Nov 2012 11:32:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2vccut1lr.fsf@math.kth.se> (raw)


Work mail is kept on an exchange server, and I access it from two
computers (one laptop, the other my work desktop) using gnus+nnimap.
Recently (I think it is after I upgraded to emacs 24) I have had trouble
with tick marks not being synced properly.  E.g., when I untick a
message on my laptop, it is remains ticked in the summary buffer on my
desktop.  As far as I can tell, the %Flagged flag on the imap server is
being set/reset correctly from either client, but it seems like gnus
uses the information in ~/.newsrc.eld, and this overrides the flags on
the server.  (This suspicion could be wrong.)

Any hints on how to fix this?  (Or hints on how to debug it?)

Best,
Par
