Hi,
when I try to read emails via IMAP in GNUS on this old x86_32 laptop,
the fetching of emails seems to hang for some reason:
Groups:
0: nnimap+imap.web.de:INBOX
167: nnimap+imap.web.de:Trash
294: nnimap+imap.web.de:Unbekannt
413: nnimap+imap.web.de:Unerwünscht
So I did enable debug-on-quit and got this:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (quit)
gnus-uncompress-range((1 . 1374046600.0))
gnus-articles-to-read("nnimap+imap.web.de:INBOX" t)
gnus-select-newsgroup("nnimap+imap.web.de:INBOX" t nil)
gnus-summary-read-group-1("nnimap+imap.web.de:INBOX" t t nil nil nil)
gnus-summary-read-group("nnimap+imap.web.de:INBOX" t t nil nil nil nil)
gnus-group-read-group(nil t)
gnus-group-select-group(nil)
funcall-interactively(gnus-group-select-group nil)
call-interactively(gnus-group-select-group nil nil)
command-execute(gnus-group-select-group)
Any ideas what could be the culprit here?
As a fun fact emacs gnus with the same imap server seems to work
correctly on an other x86_64 laptop.
any hints are welcome.
with kind regards
thomas

Your nnimap INBOX seems to use message IDs that overflow the 32-bit
range. This is something that nnimap just doesn't support
unfortunately, so there will be hangs.
The only way to work around this is to make the IMAP server renumber the
articles to "compact" them.

If that is purely a limitation of the fixnum size on 32bit platforms,
then there two other options:
a) Build emacs configured with "--with-wide-int" so 32bit emacs uses a
wider integer type (so fixnums are typically 62bit).
b) Build emacs from master which uses libgmp for arbitrary size
integers.

Doesnʼt nnimap just use Emacs integers? Those are bignums now in
emacs-27, so that should work transparently even on a 32-bit host.

Oh yeah, that's true. So this should work in Emacs 27 on 32-bit hosts,
I guess?

I'll retest as soon as this version hits my Linux distribution.
