Misbehaving gnus-gcc-mark-as-read while archiving to current group

[Carlos Pita]

Hi all,

in order to get a "conversation view" a la gmail I've configured gnus as
follows:


(setq gnus-gcc-mark-as-read t)
(setq gnus-message-archive-group
      (lambda (g)
        (unless (string-match ":" g)
          (concat "nnimap+gmail:" g))))


nnimap+gmail is my primary method so I check for lacking of ":" in the
group name (only groups for secondary methods contain a ":", at least in
my case). The generated gcc header is correct: say the group is
"micro2", the gcc will be "nnimap+gmail:micro2". That's fine.

But then there are a lot of quirks I'm not sure what to do about. Say I
reply a message in "micro2" group. My reply is indeed archived to
"micro2" but in the summaries buffer:

1. At first the sent reply is not shown at all.
2. If I press /N, then the reply is shown but as unread.
3. If I press M-g, then the reply is shown read.

In the imap server the behavior is as expected: the reply appears inside
the "micro2" folder and it's marked read. The problem is obviously with
the refreshing of the gnus views/state itself.

Is this a bug? In any case, it seems a very misleading behavior to me.

Cheers
