Hello,

When I invoke gnus-group-select-group or gnus-group-read-group or
gnus-group-quick-select-group on my INBOX group, Gnus asks how many
articles I want to read.

- If I type Enter it will say “No unread news” and makes group as read.
0: INBOX

- If I type a small number, like 20, it will open 20 last messages.

- If I type a number of messages in echo area minus 1, I'll get
1: INBOX

If I type a number of messages in echo area minus 2, I'll get
2: INBOX


I found similar issue¹, but the solution was upgrading to latest Gnus in
2010.

Any thoughts?

In addion, I found a similar issue and solution[1] is to call a
gnus-group-get-new-news-this-group with prefix or <C-u M-g> for shor on
a nnimap group with missing messages.

Also I broke the thread, here is another 'solution'[2] (worse than at
the head of the message).
