What does `G E' on theese groups show? Especially the fifth field (I
think it is), the select method. Is it different from the one in
`gnus-secondary-select-method'?

When you create groups with `G m' (possibly also auto-creation) the
group info for that group contains a messed up select method.

Me too. Fetching number of unread articles per folder can be done
asynchronously, I've been playing some with it.
