Thanks!

And AIUI nnimap is slightly different than other backends as it's specifically designed for emails so that's probably understandable. Will still trying to figure out how to let nnmaildir subscribe those internal folders by default. > ---------- Footnotes ---------- > > [1] It happens to me sometimes; when the Disroot servers are down and > Gnus tries to connect to the server, it takes too long and > I cancel it with ‘C-g’, which corrupts the ‘newsrc.eld’ if I save > it manually with ‘C-u s’ (which I unfortunately do).
