Hm...  then it sounds like the defvoo machinery isn't restoring the
local variables (and just using "NPR" as the host name, which is the
default if nnimap-address is nil).

So...  I think...  this must mean that it thinks that NPR is the current
nnimap server even when it isn't, so something hasn't been reset
correctly somewhere...
