Just to give you feedback, here's a cite from the answer of my postmaster
about the bad experiences with Courier:

   "Had a search and it appears that courier doesn't support this. The best
    solution would be to upgrade our mail server to use dovecot."

Seems it must be fixed, then, by either of the following approaches:

- enhance Gnus's cache (what you tried)
- move client from Gnus to Wanderlust (but I'm not yet convinced about such a
  move)
- move server from Courier to Dovecot (depends on my postmaster)

Thanks to you...

Best regards,
  Seb
