Re: ifile-gnus, article transfer problem

I've figured out the problem.  Now I just need to figure out the
solution.  

The problem is that by the time ifile-request-move-article gets
called, the leading "nnml:" has been stripped from the group name.
Thus, when ifile tries to ask for the article, gnus defaults to trying
to get it via nntp from a newsserver.  My guess is you don't have a
newsserver configured at all, so it just crashes.  For the rest of us,
the newsserver says "no such message", and ifile finishes up its
operations on an empty buffer.

Thus, at the moment, moving mail isn't actually retraining ifile very
well.  (This explains some weird failures of ifile to catch some spam
after I've repeatedly refiled it.)

I'll try to have this fixed in the next 24 hours or so, hopefully
sooner than that.
