should this work even when my namespace doesn't reflect the gmail mount? the rio window where i started upas/fs died and disappeared (note: without my intervention) sometime last night. i can't find any trace of the gmail messages on my system. i sent the command above, but messages in my gmail inbox are still getting marked as read a few seconds after they arrive. in the future i'll try nupas. thanks, -sl
