Mail folders inaccessible

[David Sumbler]

I was having a problem with one of my mail-folders.  In an experiment
to see if I could solve this, I ran gnus-cache-generate-nov-databases
and gnus-cache-generate-active

Now whenever I try to enter any of my main mail-groups, I get a
message such as "Couldn't activate group nnfolder:inbox: No such
group: inbox".

Yet if I list the files in ~/Mail/ they still seem to be intact - e.g.

ll Mail/inbox*
-rw-rw-r--  1 david david 386834 Nov  8 23:46 Mail/inbox
-rw-rw-r--  1 david david    152 Nov  8 23:46 Mail/inbox.mrk
-rw-------  1 david david  20015 Nov  8 23:47 Mail/inbox.nov
-rw-rw-r--  1 david david 392646 Nov  8 23:45 Mail/inbox~

How can I get things working properly again?

However, if you _really_ want to send me an e-mail,
replace "nospam" in my address with "aeolia".
