I think I was wrong in assuming that Gnus was previously able to descend subdirs in my setup. I checked the remote IMAP server and noticed that it didn't use subdirs until recently, and I had put these groups in a subtopic in Gnus, which I took the habit of mistaking for a correct representation of the structure of the IMAP server. It's easier for now to configure the IMAP to use a flat structure and use topics in Gnus. Thanks for your help and sorry for this false representation of what was finally not a problem… -- Julien Cubizolles

But I'll take a rain check on this for the next time something's really my fault. :-) --
