imap and agent: no check for new mail with 'g'

[Sebastian Schubert]

Hi,

this is probably easy to solve and I probably did some stupid things
but I cannot find the solution.  I use IMAP with the agent (no problem
without agent on that server!).  The connection works:

The problem is that it only shows a '*' after starting gnus or after 'g'
in the Group Buffer.  I can enter the imap group manually and it shows
the new mail (everything's fine).

My settings:

,----[ .gnus.el ]
| (add-hook 'gnus-select-article-hook 'gnus-agent-fetch-selected-article)
| (setq gnus-agent-expire-days 100)
| 
| (setq gnus-secondary-select-methods 
|       '(
|       (nnfolder "")
|       (nntp "news.gmane.org")
|       (nnimap "...."
|               (nnimap-address "........") 
|               (nnimap-stream tls)
|               (nnimap-list-pattern ("INBOX" "Mail/*"))
|               )
|       ))

Any idea?

Thx
Sebastian
