When I load a .newsrc.eld file produced by the Gnus version of emacs-24
branch the (unexist) ranges are there. I used the following Lisp
snippet to split & group the groups based on a check for their 'unexist'
property:
(defun group-by-unexist (newsrc-alist)
(let ((left nil)
(right nil))
(mapcar (lambda (group-data)
(let ((name (car group-data))
(unexist (let ((third (nth 3 group-data)))
(and (listp third)
(not (null third))
(assoc 'unexist third)))))
(if unexist
(setq left (cons name left))
(setq right (cons name right)))))
newsrc-alist)
(list left right)))
Running this:
(group-by-unexist gnus-newsrc-alist)
before and after loading Gnus in Emacs 24.X shows all my mail groups in
the left group (found the 'unexist' property), and "nndrafts:drafts" in
the right group (no 'unexist' property).
Then as a second test, I started Emacs from trunk, compiled from this
changeset:
commit 96ac507f8061d42bae399a900fe1408862e19795
Author: Jan D. <address@hidden>

* NEWS: NS can be build with ImageMagick.
Running `M-x load-file RET ~/.newsrc.eld RET' and then:
(group-by-unexist gnus-newsrc-alist)
correctly shows all my mail groups in the left group (they have the
'unexist' property and the `group-by-unexist' function can find it).
But then if I `M-x gnus' all groups go through an 'initial sync'.
So I think that something is broken in the way Gnus tries to read the
'unexist' value from ~/.newsrc.eld
