I don't recall any major changes related to IMAP from Gnus 5.10 to No
Gnus.

Probably.  Compare the activity in the ChangeLog within the last week
to the previous months.  No Gnus is a developer version after all.
But apart from yesterday, I didn't have serious problems.

If you see problems when upgrading from 5.9 to 5.10.6, please report
them on ding.

Is your arch archive (for Gnus) already set up?
