Steps to reproduce: 1. clean registry/profiles from appropriate 6.0 directory 2. launch N6 (build 2000121106)- migrate profile actual results: mail pane shows news folders but not individual newsgroups in folders. On second launch all newsgroups are present,
This is happening for me on linux, too. In previous tries to migrate today on linux, I saw some other terrible weirdness with news migration which I now cannot reproduce: 1. My secnews migrated as multiple hosts -- there were files and folder pane entries with a number ("port?") appended both in the disk filename and on the folder pane display. I had lots of entries for secnews -- 1 through something like 349. 2. In some instances I could not complete migration at all, just hung. 3. In some instances I could not launch mail window after migration, just hung.

This is getting really annoying. In order to view any of the groups I am subscribed to I have to go subscribe to another group then all the old migrated groups appear. Can we get some movement on this?
