Subject: 24.0.50; Gnus keeps seeing 101 unread spam
Date: Thu, 04 Aug 2011 16:39:17 -0400
Package: emacs,gnus

[ I have a couple long standing issues that were introduced with the new
nnimap.el code, and it's really high time I bring them up as
bug reports.
Here's the first one, it's one that really doesn't bother me much
(since oddly enough it only affects my `spam' folder) but seems
potentially serious and has the key property of being easy to reproduce,
contrary to some of the other problems I often bump into and which I'll
hence report later. ]

Here's what I did:
- emacs-trunk/src/emacs -f gnus
- type my IMAP password.
- see "101: nnimap+diro:spam" among the folders with unread email.
- Erase *imap log*
- type `g' to refresh the *Group* buffer.
  [ it still says "101". ]
- hit `c y' on that folder.
  [ it now says "0" unread email in the spam folder. ]
- hit `g' for the fun of it.
  [ Lo and behold I have 101 unread email in my spam folder again. ]

And yes, it's always one hundred and one (actually I think
I occasionally see 40k unread email in that folder, maybe if I first
enter it rather than just doing `c y', but that's rare anyway).
You can find below my sig the list of commands sent to the server, with
2 empty lines to separate the `g', the `c y', and the `g'.
