I don't see this as a bug. `nnimap-retrieve-headers-from-file' is an
internal nnimap function, and it just happens to depend on the caller
taking care of erasing (and maybe also restoring) the
nntp-server-buffer. If you don't want this, you could just duplicate the
three lines from the function to load the NOV file in any other (empty)
buffer of your choice.
