Unfortunately no.

G p buffer shows nil. I found that the ~/Mail/active file had this
line:
inbox 1 1 y
and fixed it setting the first ‘1‘ to the number of posts in that group,
then I got my emails back in the summary buffer. But it keeps
forgetting my ticks when I fetch new mail. They are absent from the
relevant sexp in the ~/.newsrc.eld file.
