Aha thanks that worked for one single group, reading the documentation, 

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/gnus/Basic-Usage.html

«Calling for an nnir search with the cursor on a topic heading will
search all the groups under that heading. » 



I thought, for topic configuration like this 

      [ Imap_UCM_Gmail 65083 ] 
*            0: nnimap+UCMgmail:INBOX
        [ Mathematik 55 ] 
               0: nnimap+UCMgmail:Submitted
          [ Kollegen 55 ] 
                 3: nnimap+UCMgmail:1-Helix

Putting the cursor on       [ Imap_UCM_Gmail 65083 ] 

and repeating the above procedure then  would display all the unseen message in 
all
subscribed groups. However, it did  not.

So:

    1. If I want to do that interatively, what should I do?

    2. What is the syntax for persistent search, which would generate me
       a group say UNSEEN, which displays all the unseen message in all
       subscribed imap groups?

Thank you very much
