I was using ^K to delete. It turned out that I had groups with select method like "nnimap:ptt.example.com" which is right, matching an entry in gnus-secondary-select-methods and also (nnimap "ptt.example.com") which is an incorrect "foreign group" specification, which I might have got from using U The latter entry caused g to only check one group, and use the long form of IMAP check rather then status. After hints from Simon Josefsson, I examined all my imap groups and fixed the select method not to use the list form. Now, g is fast, and I have not had any more duplicate groups problem. Note that I don't claim these two issues are related, but it seems that foreign imap select methods that shadow a real select method cause trouble. -- Greg Troxel
