It should be! > The nnimap group is managed by a local dovecot server. Does it > matter ? No, I don't think so. I tried it on one of my own nnimap servers, backed by local dovecot, and it returned several thousand messages. You can play with the bits and pieces to see where things might be going wrong: (gnus-search-query-parse-date "1y") -> (28 1 2022) (gnus-search-parse-query "since:1y") - > ((since 28 1 2022)) So far so good. (gnus-search-transform (make-instance 'gnus-search-imap) (gnus-search-parse-query "since:1y")) -> "SINCE 28-Jan-2022" Still looking correct (right?). Try doing "C-u G G" on an nnimap group to shut off gnus-search parsing, and enter "SINCE 28-Jan-2022" as the search string. Does that return anything? Eric
