I'm posting this again as I got no response or comment last time, and
this seems to be a semi-serious issue. Any clues where to start
edebugging?
I've got a problem with pgnus (Currently v0.88 but I don't think it's
version dependent, and may even be present in gnus)
I come into work and start pgnus, it reads all my new mail, filters it
beautifully, and shows me which groups have new mail. If I press L I see
all groups regardless of whether or not they have unread mail *except*
for one. This group doesn't show up at all until it receives more new
mail or until I 'touch' the file that pgnus reads from (In this case
~/mail/Fvwm-Dev). I can't see anything wrong with the active or
.newsrc.eld files but then again I wouldn't be too sure what exactly to
look for. I have seen this behaviour before with another group. I solved
it by deleting the group and recreating it (Losing all the mail in that
folder, I couldn't be bothered preserving it!).
Any ideas where I should start looking to find the problem?
