I have also encountered this behaviour but my solution may not be the
best :(

To solve this I migrated to using offlineimap3 and nnmaildir in Gnus
and I have not had an issue since!

I configured offlineimap3 with the dedicated systemd services to fetch
mails every two minutes and it works like a charm.

I also use mairix and nnmairix to search for email and just rebuild
the database every time offlineimap3 fetches mail.

If I can help in setting this up by sharing my config I will no
problems.

Cheers,
