Hi,

I am using gnus 5.9.0 in GNU Emacs 21.2.1 on Windows 2000 and have
gotten a little problem:

I have set it up so that I check several mailboxes when I start
gnus. Now a couple of these ave become unavailable (mail service shut
down), so the mail downloading hung a while. I had to interrupt it
(killing the hanging processes), and after doing that there was no
mail from the mail services that should have had mails...

The strange thing is that when I start gnus now (after having
commented out the unavailable services) I get new mail, and the total
number is a few mails more than there are new ones. When I read the
new ones the count goes to 0.

So is seems that gnus is aware of a few unread mails (one of which I
really ned to get hold of) but they don't come up. Are they in some
kind of recover files or what? Or are they gone forever?

Can anyone help?

-Robert
