Hello,
i think i find the problem, but i cannot repair it.
ALL messages with error in gnus contain a combination !2 in the file
name.
This was used on Windows for correct working of imap folders, because :
is forbidden.

if i change !2 in :2 (this assumes gnus, i read), the message is
accepted.

But how could i change the string inside the filename from !2 to :2 ?
Perhaps with dired, but i dont know how?

Any ideas?

Regards
Poul
